Genomic discovery and structural dissection of a novel type of polymorphic toxin system in gram-positive bacteria

Bacteria have developed several molecular conflict systems to facilitate kin recognition and non-kin competition to gain advantages in the acquisition of growth niches and of limited resources. One such example is a large class of so-called polymorphic toxin systems (PTSs), which comprise a variety...
