Bifurcated binding of the OmpF receptor underpins import of the bacteriocin colicin N into Escherichia coli
Colicins are Escherichia coli–specific bacteriocins that translocate across the outer bacterial membrane by a poorly understood mechanism. Group A colicins typically parasitize the proton-motive force–linked Tol system in the inner membrane via porins after first binding an outer membrane protein re...
