Genomics-guided identification of a conserved CptBA-like toxin-antitoxin system in Acinetobacter baumannii

Introduction: Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are widespread among bacteria, archaea and fungi. They are classified into six types (I-VI) and have recently been proposed as novel drug targets. Objectives: This study aimed to screen the pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii, known for its alarming antimicrob...
