Electrophysiology recordings of (mutant)
fragaceatoxin C with trypsin-digested
lysozyme. (A) Representative traces of fragaceatoxin C nanopores after
addition of an equal concentrations of trypsin-digested lysozyme under
an applied potential of −50 mV. The dotted blue line represents
the baseline current of the octameric (T1) form of wild-type fragaceatoxin
C; the dotted red line represents the baseline current of the heptameric
(T2) form of wild-type fragaceatoxin C. (B–D) Representative
trace of octameric fragaceatoxin C (T1, B), heptameric fragaceatoxin
C (T2, C), and fragaceatoxin C mutant G13F (D). The gray line represents
the recorded trace, and the black superimposed line represents the
fit after event detection. The block above the trace aligns with the
length of the events. Traces were collected in 1 M KCl and 50 mM citric
acid titrated with bis-tris propane to pH 3.8 at a sampling frequency
of 50 kHz, using a 10 kHz Bessel filter and 5 kHz Gaussian filter.
