A number of bacterial protein toxins are known to exert their cytotoxic activity via a modification of cytoskeletal components. Some toxins induce the ADP-ribosylation of actin whereas others interact with the cytoskeleton by an unknown mechanism. Understanding the mode of action of such toxins at cellular level could provide useful information on their role in vivo as virulence factors.
