[0185] Genome-wide CRISPR / Cas9 screen reveals Frizzled receptor as the receptor for Clostridium difficile toxin B

[0186] To identify physiologically relevant receptors and other host factors involved in TcdB action, two unbiased genome-wide mutagenesis screens were performed using the CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) / Cas9 approach. screen) (15, 16). The C-terminal portions of TcdA and TcdB contain a region called the combined repetitive oligopeptide (CROP, Figure 6, panel A), which binds carbohydrates and mediates the binding of toxins to cells (17). Recent studies have shown the existence of additional receptor binding domains besides CROP (18-21). Indeed, a truncated toxin lacking CROP (TcdB 1-1830 ) still induced cell rounding in a variety of cell lines at clinically relevant picotoxin concentrations (Figure 6, panels B-E) (22). Since CROP-carbohydrate interactions can mask the contribution of specific protein receptors, full-length Tc...

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims the filing date benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 311,381, entitled Compositions and Methods for Inhibiting WNT Signaling, filed March 21, 2016, under 35 U.S.C. § 119, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [0003] governmental support [0004] This disclosure was made with government support under grant 1R01NS080833 awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in this disclosure. Background technique [0005] Clostridium difficile toxin B (TcdB) is a key virulence factor causing diseases associated with Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). In developed countries, CDI is the most common cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and the leading cause of gastroenteritis-related death. Existing antibiotic regimens for CDI are ineffective, and the disease has a high relapse rate. Contents of the invention [0006] Clostridium diffici...
