Abstract: Bullfrog saxiphilin:STX complex defines a toxin “molecular sponge” blueprint for STX recognition and toxin resistance. Dinoflagelates and cyanobacteria produce saxitoxin (STX), a lethal bis-guanidinium neurotoxin causing paralytic shellfish poisoning. A number of metazoans have soluble… read more here.
