Scope note: Clase de toxinas que inhiben la síntesis de proteínas bloqueando la interacción del ARN RIBOSÓMICO con FACTORES DE ELONGACIÓN DE PÉPTIDOS. Entre ellas se encuentran la TOXINA SHIGA, producida por SHIGELLA DYSENTERIAE, y varias toxinas similares a shiga (toxinas shigoides) que son producidas por cepas patológicas de ESCHERICHIA COLI, tales como ESCHERICHIA COLI O157.

Scope note: A class of toxins that inhibit protein synthesis by blocking the interaction of ribosomal RNA; (RNA, RIBOSOMAL) with PEPTIDE ELONGATION FACTORS. They include SHIGA TOXIN which is produced by SHIGELLA DYSENTERIAE and a variety of shiga-like toxins that are produced by pathologic strains of ESCHERICHIA COLI such as ESCHERICHIA COLI O157.
