CbrA Mediates Colicin M Resistance in Escherichia coli through Modification of Undecaprenyl-Phosphate-Linked Peptidoglycan Precursors

Colicin M is an enzymatic bacteriocin produced by some Escherichia coli strains which provokes cell lysis of competitor strains by hydrolysis of the cell wall peptidoglycan undecaprenyl-PP-MurNAc(-pentapeptide)-GlcNAc (lipid II) precursor. The overexpression of a gene, cbrA (formerly yidS), was show...
