Anthrax protective antigen molecule F006 / 9229
Anthrax protective antigen molecule. Computer model showing the structure of a molecule of protective antigen (PA) produced by anthrax (Bacillus anthracis) bacteria. Anthrax employs a suite of three proteins, collectively termed anthrax toxin, that attack target organisms. Protective antigen is the first of these and works by providing a ready-made pore in its victims cell membrane, through which the other two proteins, oedema factor and lethal factor (not shown), can be delivered into the cells interior

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of Anthrax protective antigen molecule F006 / 9229. Created through a computer model, this illustration provides a detailed view of the molecular composition of protective antigen (PA), which is produced by Bacillus anthracis bacteria. Anthrax, known for its deadly effects, employs a trio of proteins collectively called anthrax toxin to attack target organisms. PA serves as the first line of defense by creating a pore in the victim's cell membrane, allowing other proteins like oedema factor and lethal factor to penetrate and wreak havoc within the cell. The white background enhances the clarity and focus on this scientific artwork that combines elements from biology, medicine, bacteriology, and toxicology. The image highlights various features such as alpha helixes and beta sheets that contribute to the tertiary structure of this crucial molecule. With its cut-out design against a white backdrop, this visual representation offers valuable insights into proteomics research while capturing attention with its artistic appeal. It serves as an invaluable resource for healthcare professionals involved in understanding bacterial toxins or conducting biochemical studies related to anthrax.
