Three polypeptides designated epiactins A, B, and C are responsible for the hemolytic activity of extracts of the sea anemone, Epiactis prolifera. Their pI values are 6.4, 8.3, and 7.6 for A, B, and C, respectively. They all are similar in size (ca.

A comparison was made of the hemolytic potency of aqueous extracts prepared from five species of intertidal sea anemones from the coast of South Africa. The active agent in an extract of Pseudactinia varia was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitati

Metridiolysin, a cytotoxic protein from the sea anemone, Metridium senile , is activated by dithiothreitol and appears to be dependent for its activity on SH-groups. In this respect it resembles a class of SH-activated cytolytic bacterial proteins of

The venom of Pogonomyrmex barbatus was analyzed with a view to elucidating the chemical nature of the agent responsible for direct hemolysis. Gel filtration experiments indicated the mol. wt of the active substance, termed barbatolysin, to be ca. 300

Seven kinds of sea anemones and the sea pansy, Renilla kollikeri , were examined for the presence of cytolytic toxins. Tealia lofotensis and Epiactis prolfiera yielded very potent lytic preparations whereas extracts of Anthopleura xanthogrammica , A.

Surmmary The substance responsible for lysis of erythrocytes by cultures of Bacillus subtilis, designated subtilysin, was purified. It contained a peptide of leucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and valine and probably a lipid. Subtilysin was activa

Several preparations of staphylococcal α-toxin and δ-lysin were studied in order to compare hemolytic activity with capacity to lyse bacterial protoplasts. δ-Lysin in relatively low concentration lysed protoplasts of Sarcina lutea , protoplasts of

Conditions are defined for the production, in high titers, of an extracellular hemolytic toxin of Aeromonas hydrophila , here termed “aerolysin.” Substantial purification of the toxin was accomplished by means of salt fractionation, dialysis, and
