    AnnotationThe Bordetella adenylate cyclase-hemolysin (CyaA, ACT, or AC-Hly) is a multifunctional toxin. CyaA delivers into host cells an adenylate cyclase enzyme (AC) and permeabilizes cell membrane by forming small cation selective pores. Indirect evidence suggested that these two activities were accomplished by different membrane-inserted CyaA conformers, one acting as an AC-delivering monomer, the other as an uncharacterized pore-forming oligomer. Here, CyaA oligomers were revealed in sheep erythrocyte membranes by immunogold labeling and directly demonstrated by pull-down of membrane-inserted CyaA together with biotinylated CyaA-AC- toxoid. Membrane oligomers of CyaA could also be resolved by non-denaturing electrophoresis of mild detergent extracts of erythrocytes
