Cover picture: Whole colicin Ia makes an
40 pS channel with four
membrane-spanning segments. If upstream T and R domains
are removed, the first membrane-spanning segment (H1)can move across the
membrane, resulting in a transition from the 40 pS
to an
7 pS channel with only three
membrane-spanning segments.
