Bactericidal activity of colicin V is mediated by an inner membrane protein, SdaC, of Escherichia coli.
Colicin V (ColV) is a peptide antibiotic that kills sensitive cells by disrupting their membrane potential once it gains access to the inner membrane from the periplasmic face. Recently, we constructed a translocation suicide probe, RR-ColV, that is translocated into the periplasm via the TAT pathway and thus kills the host cells. In this study, we obtained an RR-ColV-resistant mutant by using ...
متن کاملColicin V-treated Escherichia coli does not generate membrane potential.
Colicin V-treated Escherichia coli was inhibited in its capacity to carry out active transport of proline and was unable to generate a membrane potential. Colicin V also prevented membrane potential formation by isolated cytoplasmic membrane vesicles. We conclude that a primary effect of this colicin involves the cytoplasmic membrane as a target.
متن کاملYqjD is an inner membrane protein associated with stationary-phase ribosomes in Escherichia coli.
Here, we provide evidence that YqjD, a hypothetical protein of Escherichia coli, is an inner membrane and ribosome binding protein. This protein is expressed during the stationary growth phase, and expression is regulated by stress response sigma factor RpoS. YqjD possesses a transmembrane motif in the C-terminal region and associates with 70S and 100S ribosomes at the N-terminal region. Intere...
متن کاملDetection of Colicin genes by PCR in Escherichia coli isolated from cattle in Shiraz-Iran
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 bacteriocins. Colicins are probably the group of bacteriocins that have been most thoroughly characterized. Colicins are antimicrobial proteins produced...
متن کاملInner nuclear membrane protein transport is mediated by multiple mechanisms.
Work in the nuclear transport field has led to an incredibly detailed description of protein translocation through the central channel of the nuclear pore complex, yet the mechanism by which nuclear envelope transmembrane proteins reach the inner nuclear membrane after synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum is still hotly debated. Three different translocation models have gained experimental su...
