Addiction modulesare toxin-antitoxin systems. Each consists of a pair of genes thatspecify two components: a stable toxin and an unstable antitoxin thatinterferes with the lethal action of the toxin. Found first in E. colion low copy number plasmids, addiction modules are responsible for aprocess called the postsegregational killing effect. When bacteria losethese plasmid(s) (or other extrachromosomal elements), the cured cellsare selectively killed because the unstable antitoxin is degraded fasterthan the more stable toxin. The term 'addiction' is used because thecell depends on the de novo synthesis of the antitoxin for cellsurvival. Thus, addiction modules are implicated in maintaining thestability of extrachromosomal elements.…
