Introduction: Brief Historical Overview of attack throughout evolution. The most powerful way of damaging a membrane is through the insertion of pore-forming proteins. Research over the last decades shows that such proteins are produced by bacteria to attack bacterial or eukaryotic cells, vertebrates to kill invading organisms or infecte

Distribution of MACPF/CDC Proteinsspread in nature. MACPFs and CDCs were discovered separately with no sequence similarity at that stage being apparent between the two protein families such that they were not, until recently, considered evolutionary related. The breakthrough showing they are came with recent structural work that als

Perfringolysin O Structure and Mechanism of Pore Formation as a Paradigm for Cholesterol-Dependent C pores by inserting a large β-barrel into cholesterol-containing membrane bilayers. Binding of water-soluble CDCs to the membrane triggers the formation of oligomers containing 35–50?monomers. The coordinated insertion of more than seventy β-hairpins into the membrane requires multiple structural co

MOTTO

Structural Biology of the Membrane Attack Complex leads to recruitment of inflammatory cells or opsonisation or killing of pathogens. One effector arm of this network is the terminal pathway of complement, which leads to the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) composed of complement components C5b, C6, C7, C8 and C9. Upon formation of C
