It was first suggested in 1994 that the Tol proteins interact to form a multiprotein complex of precise stoichiometry by Guihard et al, who showed that the level of Tol proteins at certain sites in the cell increases at a similar ratio with respect to one another when purified [[Colicin A]] is added to the whole cell.<ref>PMID: 8119930</ref>
