Structure

TolB is a 44-kDa periplasmic protein associated with the outer membrane. It has two domains: an N-terminal α/β domain and a C-terminal six-bladed β-propeller (to which Pal and Colicin E9 bind) [1].

When Pal binds to TolB, several loops and propeller β-strands move, resulting in the latch strand of the β-propeller to move away.
