Cloning, purification and characterization of nigrelysin, a novel actinoporin from the sea anemone Anthopleura nigrescens

Alvarado Mesén, Javier; Solano-Campos, Frank; Canet, Liem; Pedrera, Lohans; Hervis, Yadira P.; Soto, Carmen; Borbon Alpizar, Henry; Lanio, María Eliana; Lomonte, Bruno; Valle, Aisel; Alvarez, Carlos (Elsevier B.V., 2019)

Actinoporins constitute a unique class of pore-forming toxins found in sea anemones that being secreted as soluble monomers are able to bind and permeabilize membranes leading to cell death. The interest in these proteins ...
Isolation and partial purification of a hemolytic sphingomyelin-inhibitable fraction from the sea anemone Anthopleura nigrescens

Alvarado Mesén, Javier; Álvarez, Yeney; Pedrera, Lohans; Ros, Uris; Lanio, María Eliana; Valle, Aisel; Alvarez, Carlos (2014-03)

Actinoporins are highly hemolytic pore-forming proteins with a molecular mass of around 20 kDa and high affinity for sphingomyelin-containing membranes. On the crude extract of the sea anemone Anthopleura nigrescens, the ...
