Abstract excerpt
Most biological processes involve formation of transient complexes where binding of a ligand allosterically modulates function. The ccd toxin-antitoxin system is involved in plasmid maintenance and bacterial persistence. The CcdA antitoxin accelerates dissociation of CcdB from its complex with DNA gyrase, binds and neutralizes CcdB, but the mechanistic details are unclear. Using a series of experimental...
