The paper shows that the ParB-CTPase fold can be repurposed as an ATPase toxin in bacterial contact-dependent growth inhibition systems, with toxic effects in both plant and animal cells.

The paper identifies the ParB-CTPase fold as a versatile NTP-binding module found across diverse organisms, showing expanded nucleotide specificity and functional diversity through domain fusions.

This study maps transcriptional activity and chromosome architecture in Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus across its predatory lifecycle stages using multi-omics approaches.
