Alpha-toxin binds to the membrane of eukaryotic cells resulting in the release of low-molecular weight molecules and leading to an eventual osmotic lysis. Heptamer oligomerization and pore formation is required for lytic activity. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa27-319 from staphylococcus aureus hly, fused to His-SUMO-Tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
