Immunity protein release from a cell-bound nuclease colicin complex requires global conformational rearrangement.

MicrobiologyOpen - 1 Oct 2013

Abstract excerpt

Nuclease colicins bind their target receptor BtuB in the outer membrane of sensitive Escherichia coli cells in the form of a high-affinity complex with their cognate immunity proteins. The release of the immunity protein from the colicin complex is a prerequisite for cell entry of the colicin and occurs via a process that is still relatively poorly understood. We have previously shown that an energy input in the...
