Molecular basis of the sticholysin-membrane interaction on the structure of the pore and the effects of lipids

The usefulness of toxicity across the tree of life is far beyond doubt. Most, if not all, organisms produce compounds that can be used for attack and/or defense against external entities. Some of the most specialized of these compounds are toxic proteins, among which pore-forming toxins (PFTs) parti...
