Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are composed of two components. The toxin is typically a stable protein, which exhibits cytostatic or cytotoxic activity in the cells that express it. The antitoxin is either an unstable protein or RNA, which inhibits the activity of the toxin and therefore enables normal cell growth.
