Anthrax Lethal Factor is composed of four domains:
Anthrax Lethal Factor is composed of four domains:
   
   
'''Domain I''' functions in the binding of Lethal Factor to Protective Antigen 63 (PA63), which is the membrane translocation component of Anthrax Toxin.<ref name=Collier>PMID: 14570563</ref> The actual location where domain I interacts with PA is unknown. This domain, made up of amino acids residues 1-263, is perched above the other three domains and is connected to the rest of the domains through an abrupt turn at the end of the last helix.<ref name=Collier>PMID: 14570563</ref> Domain I consist of 12-helix bundle, packs against one face of a mixed four-stranded beta-sheet.<ref name=Collier RJ, Young JA>PMID: 14570563</ref>
