Type II bacterial toxin–antitoxins: hypotheses, facts, and the newfound plethora of the PezAT system
Toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems are entities found in the prokaryotic genomes, with eight reported types. Type II, the best characterized, is comprised of two genes organized as an operon. Whereas toxins impair growth, the cognate antitoxin neutralizes its activity. TAs appeared to be involved in plasm...
