Genetic Regulation of the yefM-yoeBSpn Toxin-Antitoxin Locus of Streptococcus pneumoniae

Type II (proteic) toxin-antitoxin systems (TAS) are ubiquitous among bacteria. In the chromosome of the pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae there are at least eight putative TAS, one of them being the yefM-yoeB(Spn) operon studied here. Through footprinting analyses, we showed that purifie...
