Toxin-Antitoxin systems eliminate defective cells and preserve symmetry in B acillus subtilis biofilms: Defective cells and preserve symmetry in Bacillus subtilis biofilms

Toxin-antitoxin modules are gene pairs encoding a toxin and its antitoxin, and are found on the chromosomes of many bacteria, including pathogens. This paper characterizes the specific contribution of the TxpA and YqcG toxins in elimination of defective cells from developing Bacillus subtilis biofil...
