Abstract Objective: The anthrax toxin proteins constitute a unique membrane translocation system which provide an attractive model system for the development of reagents for cell biology and therapeutics. The mutated anthrax toxin proteins PA and LF were constructed to target to tumor cells. Methods: The recombinant Rosseta(DE3) which harboring three kinds of mutated PA and LF were constructed separately. The cell viability after incubated with mutated PA and LF was detected by cytotoxicity assay. The ability of the mutated PA translocation system targeting to tumor cells was measured by the amount of the luciferase of intra-cellular. Results: The mutated PA can be cleaved by matrix metalloproteinases or uPA in vitro correctly. When the tumor cell incubated with the mutated PA and LF,the cell viability was decreased remarkably. The amount of the luciferase of intra-cellular can correctly reflex the ability of the mutated PA translocation system targeting to tumor cells. Conclusions: These mutated PA proteins showed natural biological activities and had the ability of targeting to tumor cells. These results provide a new insight for the study of the antitumor drugs.
