Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus spp.) have recently been shown to produce insecticidal bi-component protein complexes based on the aegerolysin proteins. A role for these proteins is thus indicated for defence and protection of the mushroom, and we propose their use as new environmentally friendly bioinsecticides. These aegerolysin-based protein complexes permeabilise artificial lipid vesicles through aegerolysin binding to an insect-specific sphingolipid, ceramide phosphoethanolamine (CPE), and they are cytotoxic for the Spodoptera
