On The Role of Sphingomyelinase in CAMP-factor Membrane insertion and Oligomerisation
ABSTRACT CAMP factor is a 25kDa extracellular protein from Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B streptococci) that contains 226 amino acid residues. CAMP factor has been characterized as a pore-forming toxin (PFT). The typical mechanism of pore formation of PFTs involves three main stages, namely bind...
