Oxpholipin 11D: an anti-inflammatory peptide that binds cholesterol and oxidized phospholipids.
PLoS ONE 5 , e10181, (2010) Many gram-positive bacteria produce pore-forming exotoxins that contain a highly conserved, 12-residue domain (ECTGLAWEWWRT) that binds cholesterol. This domain is usually flanked N-terminally by argi... |
