Abstract
Exposure of sheep erythrocytes to sublytic amounts of Vibrio damsela cytolysin markedly reduced their membrane sphingomyelin content and their sensitivity to lysis by the sphingomyelin-dependent cytolysins staphylococcal sphingomyelinase C (beta-toxin) and helianthin. The toxin was found to be a phospholipase D active against sphingomyelin.Entities:
