The present invention provides 
protease-cleavage resistant molecules comprising 
Shiga toxin effector polypeptides capable of exhibiting potent, 
Shiga toxin functions (e.g. subcellular routing and 
cytotoxicity). The present invention also provides 
protease-cleavage resistant, 
cell-targeting molecules for targeting specific 
cell types, e.g., infected or 
malignant cells. Certain molecules of the present invention are cytotoxic, and certain 
cell-targeting molecules of the present invention may be used for the 
targeted killing of specific cell types and the treatment of a variety of diseases, disorders, and conditions, including cancers, tumors, growth abnormalities, immune disorders, and microbial infections. Certain cell-targeting molecules of the invention exhibit improved, 
in vivo tolerability as compared to related cell-targeted molecules comprising 
protease-cleavage sensitive, wild-type, 
Shiga toxin effector polypeptides. The cell-targeting molecules of the invention can deliver additional materials, such as, e.g., antigens, cytotoxic agents, and detection-promoting agents, into the interiors of target cells.
