Flowering Poration—A Synergistic Multi-Mode Antibacterial Mechanism by a Bacteriocin Fold

Flowering Poration—A Synergistic Multi-Mode Antibacterial Mechanism by a Bacteriocin Fold

Summary: Bacteriocins are a distinct family of antimicrobial proteins postulated to porate bacterial membranes. However, direct experimental evidence of pore formation by these proteins is lacking. Here we report a multi-mode poration mechanism induced by four-helix bacteriocins, epidermicin NI01 an...
