Mechanism of ToxicityHydralysin is a cytolytic toxin. It binds to erythrocyte membranes and has weak hemolytic activity, probably mediated by oligomerization and pore formation. (1)
MetabolismFree toxin may be removed by opsonization via the reticuloendothelial system (primarily the liver and kidneys) or it may be degraded through cellular internalization via the lysosomes. Lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelles that contain an array of digestive enzymes, including several proteases.
