Efficient production of functional proaerolysin from <i>E.coli</i>

2024-09-20

Abstract excerpt

Proaerolysin is a bacterial toxin produced by Aeromonas hydrophila that specifically binds to GPI-anchored proteins on the plasma membrane, creating transmembrane pores that lead to cell death within a few hours. Leveraging this unique property, proaerolysin is widely used in diagnostic tests for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a disease caused by somatic mutations in the PIGA gene, which is involved...
