The crystal structure of staphylococcal enterotoxin type D reveals Zn super(2+)-mediated homodimerization

Bacterial superantigens, including the staphylococcal enterotoxins, are the most potent activators of T cells known and have been suggested as a causative factor in Gram-positive shock in humans. Staphylococcal enterotoxin D (SED) is dependent upon Zn super(2+) for high affinity interactions with MH...
