Lysenin Channels as Sensors for Ions and Molecules

Lysenin Channels as Sensors for Ions and Molecules

Lysenin is a pore-forming protein extracted from the earthworm <i>Eisenia fetida</i>, which inserts large conductance pores in artificial and natural lipid membranes containing sphingomyelin. Its cytolytic and hemolytic activity is rather indicative of a pore-forming toxin; however, lyse...
