Crystallization of a proform of aerolysin, a hole-forming toxin from Aeromonas hydrophila.

Abstract

Crystals of proaerolysin, the precursor of the hole-forming toxin from Aeromonas hydrophila, have been obtained. The mature form of this protein binds to a receptor on mammalian cells, aggregates and forms 30 A holes in the membrane. The crystals are tetragonal, space group P4(3)2(1)2, a = b = 104.00 A, c = 222.0 A. They contain a dimer in the asymmetric unit and diffract to a resolution of 2.6 A.
