Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria produce a large variety of protein toxins that modify specifically a large array of intracellular targets, thus altering cell physiology and function. Studies of their mechanisms of action have led to the discovery of the molecular and cellular basis of the disease in which a given bacterial toxin is involved. At the same time, these studies have provided novel and simple tools to study cell biology. This article is dedicated to describe the potential use of some bacterial toxins which are grouped on the basis of their intracellular mode of action and/or targets.
