Function

[EATX_STRPY] Antitoxin component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Neutralizes the toxic effect of cognate zeta toxin. Part of a postsegregational killing (PSK) system involved in the killing of plasmid-free cells. Continuous synthesis of the epsilon antitoxin is required to counteract the zeta toxin.[REFERENCE:7] [ZTOX_STRPY] Toxic component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Phosphorylates UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (UNAG) on the 3'-hydroxyl group of the N-acetyl-D-glucosamine moiety, yielding UNAG-3P. UNAG-3P inhibits MurA, the first committed step in cell wall synthesis, which is then blocked. Phosphorylation is inhibited by cognate epsilon antitoxin. Part of a postsegregational killing (PSK) system involved in the killing of plasmid-free cells. The zeta toxin induces programmed cell death.[REFERENCE:7]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Programmed cell death in prokaryotes is frequently found as postsegregational killing. It relies on antitoxin/toxin systems that secure stable inheritance of low and medium copy number plasmids during cell division and kill cells that have lost the plasmid. The broad-host-range, low-copy-number plasmid pSM19035 from Streptococcus pyogenes carries the genes encoding the antitoxin/toxin system epsilon/zeta and antibiotic resistance proteins, among others. The crystal structure of the biologically nontoxic epsilon(2)zeta(2) protein complex at a 1.95-A resolution and site-directed mutagenesis showed that free zeta acts as phosphotransferase by using ATPGTP. In epsilon(2)zeta(2), the toxin zeta is inactivated because the N-terminal helix of the antitoxin epsilon blocks the ATPGTP-binding site. To our knowledge, this is the first prokaryotic postsegregational killing system that has been entirely structurally characterized.
