Substrate recognition and cryo-EM structure of the ribosome-bound TAC toxin of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Toxin-antitoxin systems are widespread in bacteria. Here the authors present structures of M. tuberculosis HigBTAC alone and bound to the ribosome in the presence of native cspA mRNA, shedding light on its mechanism of translation inhibition.
