Protein attributes

Sequence length	315 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	The A subunit is responsible for inhibiting protein synthesis through the catalytic inactivation of 60S ribosomal subunits. After endocytosis, the A subnit is cleaved by furin in two fragments, A1 and A2: A1 is the catalytically active fragment, and A2 is essential for holotoxin assembly with the B subunits By similarity.
Catalytic activity	Endohydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond at one specific adenosine on the 28S rRNA.
Subunit structure	Shiga toxin contains a single subunit A and five copies of subunit B By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the ribosome-inactivating protein family.
