Electrophoresis and Electroosmosis in Aerolysin and Hemolysin Nanopores [PDF]
Voltage-dependent interaction of macromolecules with biological nanopores can arise from electroosmotic (EOF) or electrophoretic (EPF) forces. Both poly(ethylene-glycol) (PEG), and cyclodextrins (β- and α-CD, respectively) block the ionic current through α-hemolysin (αHL) and Aerolysin (AeL) pore-forming proteins with well-documented voltage-dependence.

Crossing three membranes Channel formation by aerolysin [PDF]
Aerolysin is a channel‐forming toxin responsible for the pathogenicity of Aeromonas hydrophila. It crosses the inner and outer membranes of the bacteria in separate steps and is released as a 52‐kDa inactive protoxin which is activated by proteolytic removal of approximately 40 amino acids from the C terminus.

Activation of the hole-forming toxin aerolysin by extracellular processing [PDF]
A precursor-product relationship between aerolysin and a protein with a higher molecular weight was observed in culture supernatants of Aeromonas hydrophila. The larger protein was isolated by ammonium sulfate precipitation and ion-exchange and hydroxyapatite chromatography and compared with purified aerolysin.

Cryo-EM structure of lysenin pore elucidates membrane insertion by an aerolysin family protein
Lysenin is member of the aerolysin family of small ß-barrel pore-forming toxins that include virulence factors from several human and animal pathogens. Here the authors determine the structure of the lysenin pore by single particle cryo- EM and propose a

Molecular assembly of the aerolysin pore reveals a swirling membrane-insertion mechanism [PDF]
Aerolysin is the founding member of a superfamily of β-pore-forming toxins whose pore structure is unknown. We have combined X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM, molecular dynamics and computational modeling to determine the structures of aerolysin mutants in
