Nuclease colicins bind their target receptor BtuB in the outer membrane of sensitive Escherichia coli cells in the form of a high-affinity complex with their cognate immunity proteins. The release of the immunity protein from the colicin complex is a... Read More about Immunity protein release from a cell-bound nuclease colicin complex requires global conformational rearrangement.
