Abstract excerpt

Based on the observation of large conductance states formed by Bacillus thuringiensis Cry toxins in synthetic planar lipid bilayers and the estimation of a pore size of 10-20 A, it has been proposed that the pore could be formed by an oligomer containing four to six Cry toxin monomers. However, there is a lack of information regarding the insertion of Cry toxins into the membrane and oligomer formation. Here we...
