Crystal structure of Bacillus subtilis MazF in complex with RNA
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24120662
Function
[ENDOA_BACSU] Toxic component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Has specificity for UACAU sequences, claving after the first U and yielding cleavage products with 3' phosphate and 5' hydroxyl groups. Overexpression is toxic for cell growth, probably by inhibiting protein synthesis through the cleavage of single-stranded RNA. The toxicity is reversed by the antitoxin EndoAI. Toxin activity cannot be inhibited by MazE from E.coli.[1] [2]
