Biology and evolution of bacterial toxin–antitoxin systems [PDF]

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2022
Toxin–antitoxin systems are widespread in bacterial genomes. They are usually composed of two elements: a toxin that inhibits an essential cellular process and an antitoxin that counteracts its cognate toxin.

Regulation of toxin–antitoxin systems by proteolysis

Plasmid, 2013
Toxin-antitoxin systems are widely distributed among many bacterial species, including human pathogens. Regulation of type II TA system functions, where both components are proteins, relies on proteolysis.

Toxin–antitoxin systems [PDF]

Mobile Genetic Elements, 2013
Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are small genetic elements composed of a toxin gene and its cognate antitoxin. The toxins of all known TA systems are proteins while the antitoxins are either proteins or non-coding RNAs. Based on the molecular nature of the antitoxin and its mode of interaction with the toxin the TA modules are currently grouped into five ...

parD toxin–antitoxin system of plasmid R1 – basic contributions, biotechnological applications and relationships with closely‐related toxin–antitoxin systems

FEBS Journal, 2010
Toxin–antitoxin systems, as found in bacterial plasmids and their host chromosomes, play a role in the maintenance of genetic information, as well as in the response to stress.
