Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are ubiquitous genetic elements that play an essential role in multidrug tolerance and virulence of bacteria. So far, little is known about the TA systems in Streptococcus suis.

Evaluating the Potential for Cross-Interactions of Antitoxins in Type II TA Systems
The diversity of Type-II toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems in bacterial genomes requires tightly controlled interaction specificity to ensure protection of the cell, and potentially to limit cross-talk between toxin–antitoxin pairs of the same family of TA ...

THE ANTITOXIN OF TETANUS. [PDF]
Among the many principles on which are based our modern theories of the etiology and therapeutics of disease is that of the vaccinating or immunizing power of attenuated cultures of specific microorganisms. Although this principle is forecast by Jenner's discovery of the vaccine against variola, it is to the great Frenchman, Pasteur, that should be ...

Much of the diversity of prokaryotic genomes is contributed by the tightly controlled recombination activity of transposons (Tns). The Tn3 family is arguably one of the most widespread transposon families.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis harbours nine toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems of the MazEF family. MazEF TA modules are of immense importance due to the perceived role of the MazF toxin in M. tuberculosis persistence and disease.

Toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems are widespread bacterial immune systems that confer protection against various environmental stresses. TA systems have been classified into eight types (I–VIII) based on the nature and mechanism of action of the antitoxin ...
