Phallotoxins bind to filamentous actin (F-actin) from liver or rabbit muscle with Kdiss approximately 10(-8) M. By this combination the structure of F-actin is stabilized to such an extent that it will be resistant to the depolymerizing action of 0.6 M KI and of deoxyribonuclease I, to denaturation

The high affinity of phahotoxins to filamentous actin (K, = 3.6 x 1O-8 M) has been used to assay small amounts of phallotoxins. The limit of detection was as low as 160 ng of phallotoxins. This is 50 times lower than the limit of all other procedures known so far. The assay was successfully applied
