Colibactin is a genotoxic metabolite produced by Escherichia coli and other Enterobacteriaceae ("enteric bacteria") believed to cause mutations leading to colorectal cancer and the progression of colorectal cancer. Colibactin is a polyketide peptide that can form interstrand crosslinks in DNA. 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.
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 has been previously demonstrated to have a characteristic mutational signature. The same mutational signature was discovered in several cohorts of colon cancer patients, and in smaller numbers of patients with urogenital and head and neck cancers.
