Colicins, proteinaceous antibiotics produced by Escherichia coli, specifically target competing strains killing them through one of a variety of mechanisms, including pore formation and nucleic acid degradation. The genes encoding colicins display a unique form of expression, which is tightly regula

Standard models of population dynamics focus on the interaction, survival, and extinction of the competing species individually. Real ecological systems, however, are characterized by an abundance of species (or strategies, in the terminology of evolutionary-game theory) that form intricate, complex

The presence of dual SOS boxes in the regulatory region of the most of colicin operons confines synthesis of colicin to times of stress, presumably to reduce the cost of its production. However, in presence of certain inducing agents, such as antibiotics, this tight control of colicin operon is usua
