Functional Characterization of Arcanobacterium pyogenes Pyolysin in an Oligomeric Form, and the Binding of CAMP Factor to IgG.
(University of Waterloo, 2007-12-04)The work described in this thesis deals with two pore forming toxins, namely Arcanobacterium pyogenes pyolysin and Streptococcus agalactiae CAMP factor. Pyolysin (PLO) belongs to the homologous group of cholesterol-dependent ... -
Identification of functional regions of streptococcus agalactiae CAMP factor
(University of Waterloo, 2008-09-26)Streptococcus agalactiae CAMP factor is a protein exotoxin that contains 226 amino acid residues and forms oligomeric pores on susceptible cell membranes and liposomes. In this study, fragments of CAMP factor were created ... -
Streptococcus agalactiae CAMP factor: Functional Roles of N- and C-terminal Domains & Target Membrane Effect on Toxin Activity
(University of Waterloo, 2018-05-22)CAMP factor is a well-known pore-forming toxin secreted by Streptococcus agalactiae that forms discrete pores on susceptible membranes whether natural or artificial. This work reports haemolysis and liposome permeabilization ...
