Function
[RELF_MYCTU] Antitoxin component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Upon expression in M.smegmatis neutralizes the effect of toxin RelE2. Induces its own promoter, in combination with RelG represses its own promoter. Has been seen to bind DNA in complex with toxin RelG but not alone. [RELG_MYCTU] Toxic component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Has RNase activity and preferentially cleaves at the 3'-end of purine ribonucleotides (By similarity). Overexpression in M.tuberculosis or M.smegmatis inhibits colony formation in a bacteriostatic rather than bacteriocidal fashion. Its toxic effect is neutralized by coexpression with cognate antitoxin RelB2 (shown only for M.smegmatis). Overexpression also increases the number of gentamicin-tolerant and levofloxacin-tolerant persister cells. In combination with cognate antitoxin RelF represses its own promoter. Has been seen to bind DNA in complex with antitoxin RelF but not alone.
