Diarrheal diseases caused by Vibrio cholerae and enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) lead to millions of deaths each year.[1] The protein toxins produced by these bacteria are 80% identical and comprise a single toxic A-subunit associated with a pentamer of B-subunits.[2] The B-pentamer enables the toxin to enter cells by first binding to the ganglioside GM1 glycolipid 1 (Figure 1 a, b).[2, 3] Inhibitors of this binding event are therefore potential anti-diarrheal drugs.[4] The severity of cholera caused by the El Tor biotype of V. cholerae is known to be blood-group dependent;[5] people in blood group O are affected more severely than those in blood groups A or B.[6] In contrast, there is no clear blood-group dependence for the V. cholerae O1 classical biotype,[7] and any similar correlation for ETEC-related diarrhoea is a matter of dispute.[8] The A, B and O blood groups are distinguished by carbohydrates present on the surface of cells.[9] For example, blood group O is characterized by oligosaccharides terminating in a 2-O-fucosyl-galactose structure (eg 5), the so-called H-antigen. In blood groups A and B, the H-antigen is further substituted by an α-galactosamine or galactose residue, respectively (eg, 3a and 4).There have been several reports that the cholera toxin B-subunit (CTB) does not bind to blood group oligosaccharides;[10] however, most binding studies appear to have been undertaken using classical biotype CTB, rather than El Tor CTB. In contrast, the heat-labile toxin B-subunit (LTBh) is reported to bind to both blood group A and B oligosaccharides with similar affinity, but not to H-antigen oligosaccharides.[10a, b] Blood group A oligosaccharide 3b has been crystal-
