Protein: mRNA interferase toxin HigB (EC 3.1.-.-) (Endoribonuclease HigB) (Toxin HigB) (P64578)
Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Function: Toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. A probable translation-dependent mRNA interferase. Overexpression causes cessation of cell growth and inhibits cell proliferation via inhibition of translation; this blockage is overcome by subsequent expression of antitoxin HigA. Overexpression causes cleavage of a number of mRNAs in a translation-dependent fashion, suggesting this is an mRNA interferase.
