Protein Family Models

Colicin M is a toxin produced by, and active against, Escherichia coli. It catalyses the hydrolysis of lipid I and lipid II peptidoglycan intermediates, therefore inhibiting peptidoglycan biosynthesis and leading to lysis of the bacterial cells [1]. [1]. 16777846. Colicin M exerts its bacteriolytic effect via enzymatic degradation of undecaprenyl phosphate-linked peptidoglycan precursors.
