Abstract
Tolaasin, a pore-forming 1.9 kDa peptide toxin released by Pseudomonas tolaasii, produces brown blotch disease on cultivated oyster mushrooms. To investigate the mechanism of tolaasin-induced cell disruption, we studied the effect of temperature on the hemolytic process. In the kinetic analyses, single exponential function was fitted to the data obtained from temperature-dependent velocity of hemolysis(1/t
