Identification of a Membrane-bound Prepore Species Clarifies the Lytic Mechanism of Actinoporins

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are cytolytic proteins belonging to the molecular warfare apparatus of living organisms. The assembly of the functional transmembrane pore requires several intermediate steps ranging from a water-soluble monomeric species to the multimeric ensemble inserted in the cell mem...
