Abstract

Research has been conducted on the amino acid polypeptide of the heat-stable Escherichia coli enterotoxin b. The role of the selected amino acids in the enterotoxicity and the involvement of these amino acids in the interactions of enterotoxin b with the functional receptor sulfatide have been investigated.
