The colicin Ia receptor, Cir, is also the translocator for colicin Ia [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2010 SummaryColicin Ia, a channel‐forming bactericidal protein, uses the outer membrane protein, Cir, as its primary receptor. To kill Escherichia coli, it must cross this membrane. The crystal structure of Ia receptor‐binding domain bound to Cir, a 22‐stranded plugged β‐barrel protein, suggests that the plug does not move.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.Using a combination of deletion mutants' construction, phenotyping of these mutants and complementary biochemical analyses, we established that the environmental Shewanella sp. ANA‐3 is using both the tetrathionate reductase Ttr and the polysulfide reductase Psr to respire tetrathionate.

, 2018 Colicins are antimicrobial proteins produced by Escherichia coli, which, upon secretion from the host, kill non-host E. coli strains by forming pores in the inner membrane and degrading internal cellular components such as DNA and RNA.

Is there any function for colicinogeny in the post-weaning diarrhoea of piglets?
Veterinární Medicína, 2003 Using seven experimental approaches, we attempted to solve the question of possible participation of colicinogeny and colicin-sensitivity in the pathology of the post-weaning diarrhoeic enteritis of piglets. In our research, both enterotoxic E.

mBio, 2020 Colicins are toxins produced and released by Enterobacteriaceae to kill competitors in the gut. While group A colicins employ a division of labor strategy to liberate the toxin into the environment via colicin-specific lysis, group B colicin systems lack

Role of the colicin A lysis protein in the expression of the colicin A operon [PDF]
Microbiology, 1997 Summary: The involvement of the cal gene, which encodes the colicin A lysis protein, in the expression of the colicin A operon is demonstrated. Colicin A synthesis by Escherichia coli was studied at various temperatures in cells containing either the wild-type colicin A operon or the colicin A operon with the cal gene deleted.

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation
The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 5, Page 1285-1296, March 2026.This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...
