A Novel Type V TA System Where mRNA for Toxin GhoT is Cleaved by Antitoxin GhoS

Among bacterial toxin/antitoxin (TA) systems, to date no antitoxin has been identified that functions by cleaving toxin mRNA. Here we demonstrate YjdO (renamed GhoT) is a membrane lytic peptide that causes ghost cell formation (lysed cells with damaged membranes) and increases persistence (persister...
