A VapBC Toxin-Antitoxin Module Is a Posttranscriptional Regulator of Metabolic Flux in Mycobacteria [PDF]
ABSTRACT The largest family of toxin-antitoxin (TA) modules are encoded by the vapBC operons, but their roles in bacterial physiology remain enigmatic. Microarray analysis in Mycobacterium smegmatis overexpressing VapC/VapBC revealed a high percentage of downregulated genes with ...

Crystal structure of the VapBC-15 complex from Mycobacterium tuberculosis reveals a two-metal ion dependent PIN-domain ribonuclease and a variable mode of toxin–antitoxin assembly [PDF]
Although PIN (PilT N-terminal)-domain proteins are known to have ribonuclease activity, their specific mechanism of action remains unknown. VapCs form a family of ribonucleases that possess a PIN-domain assembly and are known as toxins. The activities of VapCs are impaired by VapB antitoxins.

Characterization of a novel toxin-antitoxin module, VapBC, encoded by Leptospira interrogans chromosome [PDF]
Comparative genomic analysis of the coding sequences (CDSs) of Leptospira interrogans revealed a pair of closely linked genes homologous to the vapBC loci of many other bacteria with respect to both deduced amino acid sequences and operon organizations.

Regulation of Enteric vapBC Transcription: Induction by VapC Toxin Dimer-Breaking
Toxin-antitoxin (TA) loci encode inhibitors of translation, replication or cell wall synthesis and are common elements of prokaryotic plasmids and chromosomes. Ten TA loci of Escherichia coli K-12 encode mRNases that cumulatively contribute to persistence (multidrug tolerance) of the bacterial cells. The mechanisms underlying induction and reversion of

Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most critical opportunistic pathogens. TA systems are promising drug targets because they are related to the survival of bacterial pathogens. However, structural information on TA systems in K. pneumoniae remains lacking; therefore, it is necessary to explore this information for the development of antibacterial ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) harbors a high number of Toxin-Antitoxin (TA) systems, wherein half of them belong to virulence associated proteins B and C (VapBC) family that has a characteristic PilT N-terminus domain and ribonuclease activity. Functional insights into Mtb VapBC TA modules unraveled their role in adaptation to various host-mediated ...

The largest family of bacterial toxin-antitoxin (TA) modules is formed by the vapBC operons, and these are grouped together by virtue of their toxin components belonging to the PilT N-terminal domain family of proteins that are thought to function as ribonucleases.
