Cell entry mechanism of enzymatic bacterial colicins: porin recruitment and the thermodynamics of receptor binding.
Binding of enzymatic E colicins to the vitamin B12 receptor, BtuB, is the first stage in a cascade of events that culminate in the translocation of the cytotoxic nuclease into the Escherichia coli cytoplasm and release of its tightly bound immunity protein. A dogma of colicin biology is that the tox...
