Discusses research which studied the possible mechanism for so-called lethal factor (LF), a toxic protein produced by the anthrax bacillus. Research by Vande Woude et al in this issue; What LF is; LF's tie to the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway; Question about why LF is ...
VX -- VX works in the same way as sarin, but it is a liquid, while sarin vaporizes. It is also ten times more toxic than sarin. Ten milligrams on the skin will kill a person [source: Keyes]. A sticky version exists that adheres to whatever it falls on [source: Harrison]. The ...
