Pore-forming proteins insert from solution into membranes to create lesions, undergoing a structural rearrangement often accompanied by oligomerization. Lysenin, a pore-forming toxin from the earthworm Eisenia fetida, specifically interacts with sphingomyelin (SM) and may confer innate immunity against parasites by attacking their membranes to form pores. SM has important roles in cell membranes and lysenin is a popular SM-labeling reagent. The structure of lysenin suggests common ancestry with other pore-forming proteins from a diverse set of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The complex with SM shows the mode of its recognition by a protein in which both the phosphocholine headgroup and one acyl tail are specifically bound. Lipid interaction studies and assays using viable target cells confirm the functional reliance of lysenin on this form of SM recognition. ► We report the structure of lysenin, a sphingomyelin (SM)-binding pore-forming protein ► Lysenin binds SM's headgroup and tail; the tail occupies the edge of a β sheet ► Lipid binding and live cell studies confirm activity dependence on SM recognition ► Lysenin is related to pore-forming proteins from disparate kingdoms Lysenin is related to pore-forming proteins found in bacteria and fungi. De Colibus et al. describe structures of lysenin in different Apo conformations and bound to the lipid sphingomyelin. They map its evolutionary relationships and validate structural insights using affinity assays and live cell imaging.
