The ntrPR Operon of Sinorhizobium meliloti Is Organized and Functions as a Toxin-Antitoxin Module

The chromosomal ntrPR operon of Sinorhizobium meliloti encodes a protein pair that forms a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module, the first characterized functional TA system in Rhizobiaceae. Similarly to other bacterial TA systems, the toxin gene ntrR is preceded by and partially overlaps with the antitoxin...
