Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Persistence is a transient and non-inheritable tolerance to antibiotics by a small fraction of a bacterial population. One of the proposed determinants of bacterial persistence is toxin-antitoxin systems (TAS) which are also implicated in a wide range of

Genome‐Wide In Silico Analysis of the Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) Within the Morganella Genus
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.▪ Species‐specific T6SS patterns among Morganella genus (M. morganii and M. sibonii). ▪ Only one‐third of M. morganii isolates haboured a T6SS. ▪ All M. sibonii possess four T6SS clusters. ▪ M. sibonii exhibited a wide diversity of effectors compared to M. morganii.

ESBL-plasmids carrying toxin-antitoxin systems can be “cured” of wild-type Escherichia coli using a heat technique [PDF]
, 2013 Plasmid-encoded extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-enzymes are frequently produced by Escherichia coli. Several ESBL-plasmids contain genes for toxin- antitoxin (TA) systems, which assure the maintenance of plasmids in bacteria and prevent the ...

Protein design and RNA design: Perspectives
Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Advances in deep learning and generative modeling have transformed the landscape of protein and RNA design, enabling rapid and precise creation of novel biomolecules with tailored structures and functions. In protein design, generative deep learning frameworks now support backbone generation, sequence optimization, and joint sequence–structure

Development of an Innovative in Vitro Potency Assay for Anti-Botulinum Antitoxins
Toxins, 2016 Botulinum neurotoxins are bacterial proteins that cause botulism, a life-threatening disease. Therapy relies mostly on post-intoxication antibody treatment. The only accepted method to measure the potency of, and to approve, antitoxin preparations is the

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.Abstract A 4‐month‐old Irish Draught colt was presented for treatment of a traumatic wound to the right hind pastern region of 6 hours’ duration. Investigation confirmed communication between the wound and the proximal interphalangeal joint. Due to the joint's small size, a traditional synovial endoscopic lavage could not be performed.

The coevolution of toxin and antitoxin genes drives the dynamics of bacterial addiction complexes and intragenomic conflict [PDF]
, 2012 Bacterial genomes commonly contain ‘addiction’ gene complexes that code for both a toxin and a corresponding antitoxin. As long as both genes are expressed, cells carrying the complex can remain healthy.
