Transcriptional and proteolytic regulation of the toxin-antitoxin locus vapBC10 (ssr2962/slr1767) on the chromosome of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.

VapBC toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are defined by the association of a PIN-domain toxin with a DNA-binding antitoxin, and are thought to play important physiological roles in bacteria and archaea. Recently, the PIN-associated gene pair PIN-COG2442 was proposed to encode VapBC-family TA system and fo...
