Colibactin

Chemical compound

Colibactin is a genotoxic metabolite produced by Escherichia coli and other Enterobacteriaceae. Colibactin is a polyketide peptide that can form inter-strand crosslinks in DNA. Colibactin forms DNA inter-strand cross-links by alkylation of adenine moieties on opposing DNA strands.

From Wikipedia

Colibactin is a genotoxic metabolite produced by Escherichia coli and other Enterobacteriaceae. Colibactin is a polyketide peptide that can form inter-strand crosslinks in DNA. Colibactin forms DNA inter-strand cross-links by alkylation of adenine moieties on opposing DNA strands. It induces lytic development in certain bacteria that contain prophages. Colibactin is only produced by bacterial strains containing a polyketide synthase genomic island (pks) or clb biosynthetic gene cluster. About 20% of humans in high-income countries are colonized with E. coli that harbor the pks island.
