Résumé

Nucleotidyltransferases (NTases) control diverse physiological processes, including RNA modification, DNA replication and repair, and antibiotic resistance. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis NTase toxin family, MenT, modifies tRNAs to block translation. MenT toxin activity can be stringently regulated by diverse MenA antitoxins. There has been no unifying mechanism linking antitoxicity across MenT homologues. Here we demonstrate through structural, biochemical, biophysical and computational studies that despite lacking kinase motifs, antitoxin MenA
