Identification and characterisation of toxin-antitoxin systems (TA) in Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
, 2013 The aim of this study was to identify and characterise type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems in Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of the human disease melioidosis. 8 putative TA systems were identified within the genome of B. pseudomallei
