Functional narrative    

Colicin E9 is a protein toxin that targets E.Coli and other related bacteria by entering the target cell through the use of its translocation function located on the N-terminus. The N-terminus of this protein is predicted to be disordered in the first 83 residues. This protein toxin functions as an endonuclease and is active on both double and single stranded DNA with the killing function located on the C-terminus and occurs through the enzymatic cleavage of nucleic acids. The C-terminus is not predicted to be disordered. 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.
