Powering down the Pfam website
On October 5th, we began redirecting traffic from Pfam (pfam.xfam.org) to InterPro (www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro). The Pfam website will remain available at pfam-legacy.xfam.org until January 2023, when it will be decommissioned. You can read more about the sunset period in our blog post.

Summary

Translocation domain of colicin-like bacteriocins Add an annotation

A number of different bacterial species produce bacteriocins to kill competitor species, and the colicin class is a group of complex three-domain structures. The receptor-binding domain recognises and binds to specific cell surface receptors on the target cells; the N-terminal translocation domain interacts with cell membrane proteins to gain access to the cell interior; the C-terminal domain specifies a killing activity, such as pore formation or nuclease activity. This superfamily is a collection of the translocating domains.

This clan contains 2 families and the total number of domains in the clan is 124. The clan was built by P Coggill.

Structures

For those sequences which have a structure in the Protein DataBank, we use the mapping between UniProt, PDB and Pfam coordinate systems from the MSD group, to allow us to map Pfam domains onto UniProt three-dimensional structures. The table below shows the mapping between the Pfam families in this clan, the corresponding UniProt entries, and the region of the three-dimensional structures that are available for that sequence.
