Abstract: The gut bacterial genotoxin colibactin is linked to the development of colorectal cancer. In the final stages of colibactin’s biosynthesis, an inactive precursor (precolibactin) undergoes proteolytic cleavage by ClbP, an unusual inner-membrane-bound periplasmic peptidase, to… read more here.
