Region Role Iota toxin comparison (wt = 100)a Chelt Certhrax Mav toxin EFV toxin TccC5 Vis toxin
rearranges upon target binding, stabilizes last E of [QE]XE, may bind “vital N”, may reposition N-ribose ring Y246 H62 Y279 Y686 Y345 Y734 F67

Region 2 STS unclear F336 F77 Y385 F753 F413 Y807 F140
region 2 STS positions last E of [QE]XE via H-bonds, stabilizes oxacarbenium ion S338A: 5 S79 S387 S755 S415 S809 S142
region 2 STS stiffens active site via H bonds to nearby β-sheet T339A: 20 T80 T388 T756 T416 T810 T143
region 2 STS orients ARTT loop and [QE] of [QE]-X-E S340A: 25 T81 S389 S757 S417 S811 S144
