Membrane binding of zebrafish actinoporin-like protein: AF domains, a novel superfamily of cell membrane binding domains

Actinoporins are potent eukaryotic pore-forming toxins specific for sphingomyelin-containing membranes. They are structurally similar to members of the fungal fruit-body lectin family that bind cell-surface exposed Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen. In the present study we found a number of sequences in...
