Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are broadly distributed modules whose biological roles remain mostly unknown. The mqsRA system is a noncanonical TA system in which the toxin and antitoxins genes are organized in operon but with the particularity that the ...

Studies on the denaturation of antibody: II. The effect of protein concentration on the rate of denaturation of diphtheria antitoxin by urea [PDF]
The specific rate of inactivation of antitoxin in urea solutions, as measured by the Römer neutralization test with toxin, has been shown to be independent of the concentration of protein under the conditions studied.

Phage ϕC2 mediates transduction of Tn6215, encoding erythromycin resistance, between Clostridium difficile strains [PDF]
UNLABELLED: In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10(-6) per PFU.

An oxygen-sensitive toxin–antitoxin system
Classical toxin–antitoxin systems in bacteria are based on silencing of a toxin by an antitoxin that, when inactivated, releases the toxin, resulting in a change in metabolism. Here, the authors characterize an oxygen-sensitive toxin–antitoxin system and

Small Open Reading Frames, Non-Coding RNAs and Repetitive Elements in Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110 [PDF]
Small open reading frames (sORFs) and genes for non-coding RNAs are poorly investigated components of most genomes. Our analysis of 1391 ORFs recently annotated in the soybean symbiont Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110 revealed that 78% of them contain ...

Chaperone addiction of toxin–antitoxin systems
Some bacterial toxin-antitoxin systems consist of a labile antitoxin that inhibits a toxin, and a chaperone that stabilizes the antitoxin. Here, Bordes et al.
