Two potent, functionally redundant MazF toxins inactivate the 16S rRNA anti-Shine-Dalgarno sequence and are differentially expressed in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Timothy W Sherrier, Eduardo Artur Troian, Unnati Chauhan…·Nancy A. Woychik

This study identifies two MazF toxins in Mycobacterium tuberculosis that target the 16S rRNA anti-Shine-Dalgarno sequence, showing differential expression under stress conditions.

Phosphorylation of VapB antitoxins affects intermolecular interactions to regulate VapC toxin activity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Basanti Malakar, Valdir C. Barth, Júlia Puffal…·Robert N. Husson

This study shows that phosphorylation of VapB antitoxins in M. tuberculosis alters their interactions with VapC toxins and promoter DNA, thereby regulating toxin activity and bacterial survival.
