Three dimensional structure of the MqsR:MqsA complex: a novel TA pair comprised of a toxin homologous to RelE and an antitoxin with unique properties. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2009 One mechanism by which bacteria survive environmental stress is through the formation of bacterial persisters, a sub-population of genetically identical quiescent cells that exhibit multidrug tolerance and are highly enriched in bacterial toxins ...

Algal chloroplast produced camelid VH H antitoxins are capable of neutralizing botulinum neurotoxin.
Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2015 We have produced three antitoxins consisting of the variable domains of camelid heavy chain-only antibodies (VH H) by expressing the genes in the chloroplast of green algae.
