Figure 7. This montage shows the successful chaperonin capture and structural analysis of the anthrax toxin pore complex I while bound to the GroEL scaffold).

Figure 7

In the presence of the chaperonin sink, general aggregation of the anthrax toxin pore (protective antigen) is avoided, the anthrax toxin pore forms a complex with GroEL (visualized via Negative stain EM) and this functional toxin pore complex can be released from GroEL and insert into membrane bilayers (See more details in 22).
