The synthesis of colicine K by the colicinogenic bacillus E. coli K235 has been studied in the chemostat. It has been found that colicine production is influenced by the pH of the medium, by the nature of the primary carbon source, and by the generation time of the microorganism.

Receptor-mediated import of nuclease E colicins
Protein import across cell membranes is an essential life process. Colicins are proteins produced and secreted by E. coli, which kill sibling cells that contain the translocation apparatus necessary for colicin import but do not produce an immunity ...

Toxicity of wild-type, mutant and hybrid-colicins E3/E2 and E2/E3 derivatives.
(A) Alignment of the C-terminal ends of the R domain (blue box) and the linker regions (yellow box) [15], [16] of colE2 and E3. Amino acids that are specific for either DNase or RNase E-type colicins are shown in bold.

Interfacial Interactions of Pore-Forming Colicins
Colicins are water soluble toxins secreted by E. coli cells to kill other E. coli and related species. To do this they need to cross the outer membrane, periplasm and inner membrane.

Investigating the role of lysis proteins of enzymatic colicins in bacterial competition [PDF]
Colicins (Cols) are plasmid-encoded toxins produced by Escherichia coli that kill other E. coli and other closely related gram-negative species. Colicins play important role in promoting microbial diversity and provide selective advantage to the ...

How bacteria protect themselves against channel-forming colicins
Here we review the mechanisms that bacterial cells use to protect themselves against channel-forming colicins. Four mechanisms are examined: immunity, resistance, tolerance and PacB character.

Plant-expressed pyocins for control of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The emergence, persistence and spread of antibiotic-resistant human pathogenic bacteria heralds a growing global health crisis. Drug-resistant strains of gram-negative bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are especially dangerous and the medical and
