↓   -Edema factor.
-Lethal factor.
Protective antigen form spores in the human cell membrane.
Clavage of phosphokinase(that activates mitoge activated protein kinase MAPK signal transduction pathway )By lethal factor.
Inhabits pathway that control the growth of human cell
Inhibition of cell growth.
