HicA

HicA toxins cleave mRNAs independently of the ribosome. Overexpression leads to cleavage of a number of mRNAs and tmRNA, in a translation-independent fashion, suggesting that HicA is an mRNA interferase, which may play a role in bacterial resistance to antibiotics. In addition, overexpression of HicA leads to cell death and inhibits cell proliferation via inhibition of translation. The effect may be overcome by expression of antitoxin HicB.
