The fungal peptide toxin candidalysin induces distinct membrane repair mechanisms compared to bacterial pore-forming toxins

Roshan Thapa, Gbenga Victor Kayejo, Claire M. Lyon…·Peter A. Keyel

This study investigates how cells repair damage from the fungal toxin candidalysin compared to bacterial pore-forming toxins, finding distinct Ca2+-dependent mechanisms and roles for MEK and annexins.
