Detection of Toxin Translocation into the Host Cytosol by Surface Plasmon Resonance
Department of Molecular Biology and Microbiology, University of Central Florida
In this report, we describe how surface plasmon resonance is used to detect toxin entry into the host cytosol. This highly sensitive method can provide quantitative data on the amount of cytosolic toxin, and it can be applied to a range of toxins.
