Identification of a Toxin–Antitoxin System That Contributes to Persister Formation by Reducing NAD in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>

Identification of a Toxin–Antitoxin System That Contributes to Persister Formation by Reducing NAD in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>

Bacterial persisters are slow-growing or dormant cells that are highly tolerant to bactericidal antibiotics and contribute to recalcitrant and chronic infections. Toxin/antitoxin (TA) systems play important roles in controlling persister formation. Here, we examined the roles of seven predicted type...
