An intermediate in the assembly of a pore-forming protein trapped with a genetically-engineered switch.

Chemistry & biology - 1 Feb 1995

Walker B, Braha O, Cheley S, Bayley H

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Studies of the mechanisms by which certain water-soluble proteins can assemble into lipid bilayers are relevant to several areas of biology, including the biosynthesis of membrane and secreted proteins, virus membrane fusion and the action of immune proteins such as complement and perforin. The alpha-hemolysin (alpha HL) protein, an exotoxin secreted by Staphylococcus aureus that forms heptameric...
