Applications of toxin-antitoxin systems in synthetic biology
Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are ubiquitous in bacteria and archaea. Most are composed of two neighboring genetic elements, a stable toxin capable of inhibiting crucial cellular processes, including replication, transcription, translation, cell division and membrane integrity, and an unstable antito...
