sRNA Antitoxins: More than One Way to Repress a Toxin
Toxins, 2014 Bacterial toxin-antitoxin loci consist of two genes: one encodes a potentially toxic protein, and the second, an antitoxin to repress its function or expression. The antitoxin can either be an RNA or a protein.

THE ANTITOXIN OF TETANUS. [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1896 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 ...

Toxin-Antitoxin Systems as Multilevel Interaction Systems
Toxins, 2014 Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are small genetic modules usually composed of a toxin and an antitoxin counteracting the activity of the toxic protein. These systems are widely spread in bacterial and archaeal genomes.

Toxin-Antitoxin Systems of Staphylococcus aureus
Toxins, 2016 Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are small genetic elements found in the majority of prokaryotes. They encode toxin proteins that interfere with vital cellular functions and are counteracted by antitoxins.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1899 In a lecture delivered by Dr. T. Clifford Allbutt, regius professor of physics in Cambridge University, England, before the Johns Hopkins University in October, 1898, occur these words 1 : "The study of origins, then, is not only the new method of modern criticism, of modern history, of modern anthropology, of our reading of the evolution of the ...

Toxins, 2023 Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are widely present in bacterial genomes. They consist of stable toxins and unstable antitoxins that are classified into distinct groups based on their structure and biological activity. TA systems are mostly related to mobile
