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

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.
