1.A.30.2.2
The TolA energy-transducing system. TolQ/R (the putative H+ channel) are listed here; TolA is listed under TC# 2.C.1.2.1, together with its auxiliary proteins. The channel is lined by TolR-Asp23, TolQ-Thr145 and TolQ-Thr178.  The Tol-Pal complex, energized by TolQRA, and using the outer membrane proteins, BtuB and OmpF as receptors, is responsible for the uptake of colicin ColE9 and other bacteriocins; in this process, the complex in the outer membrane bridges and immobilizes the complex components in the inner membrane (Rassam et al. 2018). Salmonella Tol-Pal reduces outer membrane glycerophospholipid levels for envelope Hhomeostasis and survival during bacteremia in a process dependent on the TolQR channel (Masilamani et al. 2018).
