Description | Proteins in this entry include the Immunity protein YezG from Bacillus subtilis and Type VII secretion system protein EsaG from Staphylococcus aureus. YezG is the antitoxin component of a LXG toxin-antitoxin (TA) module that promote kin selection, mediate competition in biofilms, and drive spatial segregation of different strains, probably helping to avoid warfare between strains in biofilms [ ]. EsaG is part of toxin-antitoxin system that counteracts the toxic effect of EssD via direct interaction [].YezG has an α/β structure with an antiparallel β-sheet. | Name | Immunity protein YezG-like superfamily |
