Toxin-antitoxin systems are genetic modules composed of a labile antitoxin that inhibits a stable toxin and are associated with some physiological processes of bacteria, such as the formation of persistent cells, biofilm formation, protection against bacteriophages and responses to stressful environments. In these modules, the toxin is related to the inhibition of physiological processes …

Abstract
Diarrhea causes approximately 800,000 deaths per year among children under five years of age, with diarrheogenic Escherichia coli strains accounting for 30-40% of cases of severe diarrhea in developing countries, including enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) and enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) are often associated with cases of the disease. EPEC and EHEC induce an attaching / effacing lesion (A / E …
