TisB Protein Protects Escherichia coli Cells Suffering Massive DNA Damage from Environmental Toxic Compounds

TisB Protein Protects Escherichia coli Cells Suffering Massive DNA Damage from Environmental Toxic Compounds

ABSTRACT Toxin-antitoxin systems are genetic elements that are widespread in prokaryotes. Although molecular mode of action of many of these toxins has been identified, their biological functions are mostly unknown. We investigated the functional integration of the TisB/IstR toxin-antitoxin system i...
