Description

Diphtheria is a serious, often fatal human disease associated with damage to many tissues. Bacteria in infected individuals, however, are typically confined to the lining of the throat or to a skin lesion; systemic effects are due to the secretion of an exotoxin encoded by a lysogenic bacteriophage. The toxin is encoded as a single polypeptide but is cleaved by host furin-like proteases to yield an aminoterminal fragment A and a carboxyterminal fragment B, linked by a disulfide bond. Toxin cleavage can occur when it first contacts the target cell surface, as annotated here, or as late as the point at which fragment A is released into the cytosol. Fragment B mediates toxin uptake into target cell endocytic vesicles, where acidification promotes a conformational change enabling fragment B to form a channel in the vesicle membrane through which fragment A is extruded into the target cell cytosol. Cleavage of the inter-fragment disulfide bond frees DT fragment A, which catalyzes ADP ribosylation of the translation elongation factor 2 (EEF2) in a target cell, thereby blocking protein synthesis. Neither fragment is toxic to human cells by itself (Collier 1975; Pappenheim 1977; Murphy 2011). View original pathway at Reactome.

R-HSA-5336413 (Reactome) The target cell clathrin-coated vesicle containing diphtheria toxin (DT A:B) in a complex with target cell proteins HBEGF and CD9 is transformed into an endocytic vesicle (Murphy 2011).
R-HSA-5336417 (Reactome) Diphtheria toxin fragments A and B, linked by a disulfide bond (DT A:B) (Collier and Kandel 1971; DeLange et al. 1979; Lambotte et al. 1980; Michel et al. 1972) bind to molecules of proheparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HBEGF) and CD9 antigen on the target cell plasma membrane. While binding to HBEGF is sufficient for DT A:B uptake into a target cell, presence of CD9 on the target cell surface substantially increases its sensitivity to DT and cross-linking and immunopreciptitation studies indicate that DT A:B, HBEGF, and CD9 form a complex on the cell surface (Brown et al. 1993; Iwamoto et al. 1994). The organization and order of assembly of the complex are not known.
R-HSA-5336420 (Reactome) The normal process of acidification of the endocytic vesicle containing diphtheria toxin (DT A:B) associated with target cell proteins HBEGF and CD9 is thought to cause a conformational change in the toxin. Its B fragment forms a channel in the endocytic vesicle membrane through which the A fragment is extruded into the target cell cytosol. There, reduction of the disulfide bond connecting the A and B fragments releases the A fragment to refold. The process requires participation of target cell heat shock proteins (HSP90AA1 and HSP90AB1) and thioredoxin reductase 1 (TXNRD1), which may mediate disulfide bond cleavage (Ratts et al. 2003; Murphy 2011).
R-HSA-5336421 (Reactome) Target cell elongation factor 2 (EEF2) is ADP-ribosylated in a reaction catalyzed by cytosolic diphtheria toxin fragment A (DT A), inactivating it (Honjo et al. 1971; Van Ness et al. 1980a,b). The loss of EEF2 activity blocks target cell protein synthesis, and a small number of DT A molecules are capable of inactivating sufficient EEF2 to cause target cell death (Collier 1975).
R-HSA-5336422 (Reactome) The complex of diphtheria toxin (DT A:B) and target cell surface proteins HBEGF and CD9 is taken up by endocytosis into a clathrin-coated vesicle (Moya et al. 1985; Murphy 2011).
