Nebrodeolysin is a 27 kDa hemolysin isolated from the edible mushroom Pleurotus nebrodensis (Lv et al, 2009). Nebrodeolysin exhibits remarkable hemolytic activity towards rabbit erythrocytes and causes efflux of potassium ions from erythrocytes. It shows strong cytotoxicity against Lu-04, Bre-04, HepG2, L929, and HeLa cells and induces cell death by apoptosis in L929 and HeLa cells. Nebrodeolysin also possesses anti-HIV1 activity in CEM cell culture.
