The <i>higBA-</i> Type Toxin-Antitoxin System in IncC Plasmids Is a Mobilizable Ciprofloxacin-Inducible System
Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems play vital roles in maintaining plasmids in bacteria. Plasmids with incompatibility group C are large plasmids that disseminate via conjugation and carry high-profile antibiotic resistance genes.
