Functional diversification despite structural congruence in the HipBST toxin-antitoxin system of <i>Legionella pneumophila</i>

2022-11-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are abundant genetic modules in bacterial chromosomes and on mobile elements. They are often patchily distributed and their physiological functions remain poorly understood. Here, we characterize a TA system in Legionella pneumophila that is highly conserved across Legionella species. This system is distantly related to Escherichia coli HipBST and we demonstrate t...
