Lori Burrows and John Whitney will be honoured at the annual meeting of the Canadian Society for Molecular Biosciences.
The toxin creates 'a total assault on the cell' in unprecedented ways, paving the way for potential new generation of antibiotics.
Whitney was selected for his pioneering work on bacterial secretion systems. The exploitation of such systems could lead to novel methods of developing new antibiotics.
