Questions For Future Research
Despite the recent advances in the understanding of anthrax toxin, there are still several missing details in the action of anthrax toxin. These missing details leave questions about the molecular actions inside the cell.2 What role does EF play in hindering the immune system? Does it work with LF for its effect? How do the enzymes refold after translocation? Is there a chaperonin? Two proteins: KIF1C and the proteasome have shown a contribution to the effect of lethal toxin, but how do they contribute? Does LF target certain MAPKKs with a greater specificity? Does LF target other molecules too?

Famous quotes containing the words questions, future and/or research:
“If you think about it seriously, all the questions about the soul and the immortality of the soul and paradise and hell are at bottom only a way of seeing this very simple fact: that every action of ours is passed on to others according to its value, of good or evil, it passes from father to son, from one generation to the next, in a perpetual movement.”
—Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937)
“We accept and welcome ... as conditions to which we must accommodate ourselves, great inequality of environment; the concentration of business, industrial and commercial, in the hands of a few; and the law of competition between these, as being not only beneficial, but essential for the future progress of the race.”
—Andrew Carnegie (1835–1919)
“... research is never completed ... Around the corner lurks another possibility of interview, another book to read, a courthouse to explore, a document to verify.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
