2 Figure 1 The SocAB System Is a New Class of Toxin-Antitoxin Modules
(A) Unlike canonical toxin-antitoxin systems, the SocA antitoxin (purple) acts as a proteolytic adaptor for the degradation of SocB toxin (red) by the protease ClpXP (gray). (B) The five types of toxin-antitoxin systems are classified based on the mechanism of action the antitoxin (purple) employs to inactivate toxin (red) activity. AT, antitoxin; T, toxin.
