Accession ID Name Pfam Type
PF13957 Toxin YafO, type II toxin-antitoxin system family

YafO is a toxin which inhibits protein synthesis. It acts as a ribosome-dependent mRNA interferase. It forms part of a type II toxin-antitoxin system, where the YafN protein acts as an antitoxin [1,2]. This domain forms complexes with yafN antitoxins containing Pfam:PF02604.
