Difference between Cytolysin and Lysis

Cytolysin vs. Lysis

Cytolysin refers to the substance secreted by microorganisms, plants or animals that is specifically toxic to individual cells, in many cases causing their dissolution through lysis. Lysis (Greek λύσις lýsis, "a loosing" from λύειν lýein, "to unbind") refers to the breaking down of the membrane of a cell, often by viral, enzymic, or osmotic (that is, "lytic") mechanisms that compromise its integrity.

Similarities between Cytolysin and Lysis

Cytolysin and Lysis have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bacteria, Cell (biology), Detergent, Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, Hemolysis, Lipid, Protein, Secretion.

Bacteria

Bacteria (common noun bacteria, singular bacterium) is a type of biological cell.

Gram-negative bacteria

Gram-negative bacteria are bacteria that do not retain the crystal violet stain used in the gram-staining method of bacterial differentiation.

Gram-positive bacteria

Gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that give a positive result in the Gram stain test, which is traditionally used to quickly classify bacteria into two broad categories according to their cell wall.

Hemolysis

Hemolysis or haemolysis, also known by several other names, is the rupturing (lysis) of red blood cells (erythrocytes) and the release of their contents (cytoplasm) into surrounding fluid (e.g. blood plasma).
