==== ADP-ribosyl-transferases related toxins ==== {{Main article|Cholera toxin}} * [[Cholera toxin]] is an [[AB toxin]] that has five B subunints and one A subunit. The toxin acts by the following mechanism: First, the B subunit ring of the cholera toxin binds to [[GM1]] [[ganglioside]]s on the surface of target cells. If a cell lacks GM1 the toxin most likely binds to other types of glycans, such as Lewis Y and Lewis X, attached to proteins instead of lipids.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://elifesciences.org/content/4/e09545 |title=Fucosylation and protein glycosylation create functional receptors for cholera toxin |author=Amberlyn M Wands |author2=Akiko Fujita |journal=eLife | date=October 2015 |volume=4 |doi=10.7554/eLife.09545 |doi-access=free }}</ref><ref>Cervin J, Wands AM, Casselbrant A, Wu H, Krishnamurthy S, Cvjetkovic A, et al.
