Function

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. Inhibits host neutrophil chemotaxis to the lesion region (Probable). Heptamer oligomerization and pore formation is required for lytic activity.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Secreted

Product Specifications

Recombinant Staphylococcus aureus Alpha-hemolysin (hly) is a recombinant protein from Staphylococcus aureus (strain NCTC 8325 / PS 47), expressed in Yeast, covering amino acids 27-319aa, with C-terminal 6xHis-tagged tag, molecular weight 34.7kDa, purity Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.. Suitable for ELISA and Western Blot applications.
