A novel double-ribonuclease toxin-antitoxin system linked to the stress response and survival of Acidovorax citrulli

ABSTRACT Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are widespread among prokaryotes and can play an important role in the maintenance of genetic elements and pathogen virulence. Their roles in bacterial stress response and antimicrobial persistence currently remain highly controversial. The current study investi...
