VapC proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis share ribonuclease sequence specificity but differ in regulation and toxicity.
The chromosome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) contains a large number of Type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems. The majority of these belong to the VapBC TA family, characterised by the VapC protein consisting of a PIN domain with four conserved acidic residues, and proposed ribonuclease activit...
