Functional information

Function Uniprot Antitoxin component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. A probable antitoxin for the putative mRNA interferase RelK. Upon expression in E.coli but not in M.smegmatis this protein neutralizes E.coli YoeB.; Binds to and represses its own promoter, in combination with RelK repression is somewhat lessened. Several DNA-protein complexes are formed in vitro depending on the RelJ:RelK ratio.
Role Repressor
Protein family PhdYeFM_antitox
Structure (PDB ID) 3CTO
