Function

CTXL_LEIQU This toxin binds to the surface of glioma cells, and inhibits their proliferation without having effects on normal brain cells. In this context, this toxin has been described as a chloride channel inhibitor (probably ClC-3/CLCN3) by causing its internalization via caveolae (PubMed:16520829). It has also been described to selectively interact with MMP2 (in complex with MT1-MMP (MMP14) and TIMP2), to inhibit its enzymatic activity and to decrease its presence at the cell surface (PubMed:12454020).[1] [2] [3]
