'''Colicin I receptor''' (Cir) is an E. coli outer membrane protein which binds [[Colicin|colicin]] Ia. Upon binding it changes its conformation enabling the colicin to insert into the inner membrane forming a voltage-dependent ion channel resulting in killing the bacteria. | '''Colicin I receptor''' (Cir) is an E. coli outer membrane protein which binds [[Colicin|colicin]] Ia.
