Single-particle cryo-EM reveals conformational variability of the oligomeric VCC β-barrel pore in a lipid bilayer

Vibrio cholerae cytolysin (VCC) is a water-soluble, membrane-damaging, pore-forming toxin (PFT) secreted by pathogenic V. cholerae, which causes eukaryotic cell death by altering the plasma membrane permeability. VCC self-assembles on the cell surface and undergoes a dramatic conformational change f...
