Conjugative plasmid-encoded toxin–antitoxin system PrpT/PrpA directly controls plasmid copy number

Toxin–antitoxin (TA) loci were initially identified on conjugative plasmids, and one function of plasmid-encoded TA systems is to stabilize plasmids or increase plasmid competition via postsegregational killing. Here, we discovered that the type II TA system, Pseudoalteromonas rubra plasmid toxin–an...
