Colicins exploit native disorder to gain cell entry: a hitchhiker's guide to translocation.
The translocation of protein toxins into a cell relies on a myriad of protein-protein interactions. One such group of toxins are enzymatic E colicins, protein antibiotics produced by Escherichia coli in times of stress. These proteins subvert ordinary nutrient uptake mechanisms to enter the cell and...
