Insights into the Protein–Lipid Interaction of Perivitellin-2, an Unusual Snail Pore-Forming Toxin
The perivitellin-2 (PV2) from snails is an unusual neuro and enterotoxin comprising a pore-forming domain of the Membrane Attack Complex and Perforin Family (MACPF) linked to a lectin. While both domains have membrane binding capabilities, PV2’s mechanism of action remains unclear. We studied the ap...
