Widespread deployment of the human CD38 ADP-ribosyl cyclase fold in antibacterial and anti-eukaryotic polymorphic toxins
Bacterial polymorphic toxins are modular weapons that mediate intermicrobial competition and host interactions by delivering diverse cytotoxic domains through specialized secretion systems. Here, we i...
