In this review, we discuss the structural and biochemical mechanisms associated with the membrane-damaging pore-forming functionality of some of the prominent class of PFPs. We attempt to highlight the versatility in the structure-function mechanisms of wide variety of PFPs that are implicated in ...

Using sodium dodecyl sulfate as a membrane model, we examined the NMR structure of K2 in the presence and absence of the micelle. Biochemical and NMR experiments show that the conserved, lysine-rich segments are involved in the binding of the dehydrin to a membrane, whereas the poorly ...
