The Hemolysin Family [Function: Non-specific channels] Seed alignment | Full alignment in OMPdb | |
Hemolysin, a heptameric porin, is secreted by pathogenic bacteria. The heptamer comprises a ring-like structure with an outer diameter of 135 Å. The channel pore consists of an upper large vestibule formed by beta prism and cytolysin domains, and the stem domains which form a 14-strand beta barrel. | |
