Regulating Toxin-Antitoxin Expression: Controlled Detonation of Intracellular Molecular Timebombs

Genes for toxin-antitoxin (TA) complexes are widely disseminated in bacteria, including in pathogenic and antibiotic resistant species. The toxins are liberated from association with the cognate antitoxins by certain physiological triggers to impair vital cellular functions. TAs also are implicated...
