Abstract excerpt
Cotranslational subunit assembly is thought to be a prominent feature throughout the proteome, but, in bacteria, there are only a limited number of experimentally confirmed examples and most involve the addition of extraneous tag sequences for experimental convenience. Toxin CcdA and Antitoxin CcdB are components of the ccdAB operon. They assemble in a hetero-multimeric complex in vivo. Building on a previously...
