The membrane insertion of colicins
FEBS Letters, 1992 Pore‐forming toxins, such as colicin A, are water‐soluble proteins that insert into lipid bilayers. The water‐soluble structure of Colicin A is known at a high resolution and this review describes the kinetic and structural steps involved in its soluble‐to‐membrane bound transformation.

Antibiotic Use in Livestock: A Driver of Resistance in Africa and the Path to Safer Alternatives
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.The incorporation of antibiotics into animal feeds is one of the drivers of antibiotic resistance, a global One Health challenge. To reduce the burden of antibiotic resistance, the use of alternative growth promoters and drugs must be promoted, as well as sensitization and implementation of regulations.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Profile of Enterobacteriaceae Isolated at a Teaching Hospital in Ghana
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.This study identified a significant prevalence of antimicrobial resistance determinants within Enterobacteriaceae isolates, with particular emphasis on those producing extended‐spectrum β‐lactamases (ESBL). These isolates harbored diverse antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), plasmid replicons, and virulence factors (VFs), highlighting the imperative for

Comparison of the Uptake Systems for the Entry of Various BtuB Group Colicins into Escherichia coli
, 1989 International audienceColicins A, E1, E2 and E3 belong to the BtuB group of colicins. The NH2-terminal region of colicin A is required for translocation, and defects in this region cannot be overcome by osmotic shock of sensitive cells.

Detection of Colicin genes by PCR in Escherichia coli isolated from cattle in Shiraz-Iran
Archives of Razi Institute, 2012 A variety of probiotic bacteria have been tested to control animal and foodborne pathogenic bacteria in livestock. The mechanism of inhibition of pathogenic bacteria for several of those probiotic microorganisms is mediated by the production of ...

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1962 The somatic antigen of the non-colicinogenic bacillus E. coli K235 L-OC- has been isolated, and its chemical and serological properties have been compared with those of colicine K. The antigen of the non-colicinogenic bacillus has a protein content significantly lower than that of the C+ antigen, a difference which might be related to the antibacterial

The development of colicins as novel antimicrobials against Crohn’s disease associated adherent-invasive Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2016 Crohn’s Disease (CD) is an incurable form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of complex etiology that is associated with gut dysbiosis that frequently includes colonisation by adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC).
