'''Anthrax edema factor''' (EF) is an enzyme which is part of the ''Bacillus anthracis'' anthrax toxin.  The full anthrax toxin is composed of a cell-binding protein (protective antigen), lethal factor and EF.   The EF is a calcium- and calmodulin-dependent adenylate cyclase.  The binding of calmodulin to EF changes it from its non-active form to the active one.<ref>PMID:15680766</ref>
