CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE E9 DNASE DOMAIN WITH A MUTANT IMMUNITY PROTEIN IM9(E41A)CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE E9 DNASE DOMAIN WITH A MUTANT IMMUNITY PROTEIN IM9(E41A)
[IMM9_ECOLX] This protein is able to protect a cell, which harbors the plasmid ColE9 encoding colicin E9, against colicin E9, it binds specifically to the DNase-type colicin and inhibits its bactericidal activity. [CEA9_ECOLX] This plasmid-coded bactericidal protein is an endonuclease active on both single- and double-stranded DNA but with undefined specificity. Colicins are polypeptide toxins produced by and active against E.coli and closely related bacteria.
