Amount of colicin release in Escherichia coli is regulated by lysis gene expression of the colicin E2 operon.
The production of bacteriocins in response to worsening environmental conditions is one means of bacteria to outcompete other microorganisms. Colicins, one class of bacteriocins in Escherichia coli, are effective against closely related Enterobacteriaceae. Current research focuses on production, rel...
