摘要

Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are widely conserved in bacteria and consist of a toxin that inhibits essential cellular functions (e.g., DNA replication, transcription, translation, or ATP synthesis) and an antitoxin that neutralizes its cognate toxin. Kato et al. (e00915-19) found novel TA systems on the Staphylococcus aureus chromosome, using a combination of manual base-by-base screening and functional assignments in Escherichia coli and S. aureus. The newly discovered TA systems exhibited no sequence similarities with known TA systems and were unique to staphylococci. These findings provide a promising approach for discovering unannotated TA systems in various bacterial species.Achievement of near-zero growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae through limited supply of nonenergy substrates, relevant in both natural and industrial environments, remains largely unexplored. Liu and coauthors (e01161-19) established near-zero-growth retentostat cultures of S. cerevisiae through restricted supply of the nitrogen or phosphorus source. For both conditions S. cerevisiae was kept in a virtually nongrowing state, while maintaining a high-viability, adequate energy status and metabolic active state. The possibility to achieve near-zero growth S. cerevisiae cultures through limited supply of a nonenergy nutrient may offer interesting prospects to develop novel fermentation processes for high-yield production of biobased chemicals.
