Synthetic peptides that reproduce the N-terminus of sticholysins as models for the study of their structure-function relationship
The Caribbean Sea anemone Stichodactyla helianthus produces two pore-forming proteins, sticholysins I and II (StI and StII). To clarify the contribution of the first thirty (StII) or thirty-one (StI) N-terminal amino acid residues to the activity of the toxins, four peptides spanning residues 1-31 o...
