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

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 ...

VapC Toxins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis are ribonucleases that differentially inhibit growth and are neutralized by cognate VapB antitoxins [PDF]
The chromosome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) encodes forty seven toxin-antitoxin modules belonging to the VapBC family. The role of these modules in the physiology of Mtb and the function(s) served by their expansion are unknown.
