Structural highlights

Function

[PHD_BPP1] Antitoxin component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. A labile antitoxin that binds to the doc toxin and neutralizes its toxic effect. Bacteriophage P1 lysogenizes bacteria as a low-copy number plasmid. Phd and doc proteins function in unison to stabilize plasmid number by inducing a lethal response to P1 plasmid prophage loss.^{[1] [2]} Binds to its own promoter repressing its expression; toxin doc acts as a corepressor or derepressor depending on the ratio, repressing or inducing expression.^{[3] [4]}
