mazEF toxin-antitoxin cluster

Encodes a stable non-specific ribonuclease toxin (mazF) and its inhibitory antitoxin (mazE) in Bacillus Subtilis. These genes are use in Bacillus Subtilis to provide a toxin-antitoxin in various stressful conditions. When transcribtion of both genes is turned off (as both are under contol of same promoter) mazE will be degraded faster than mazF. There is then no inhibiton of mazF, killing the cell.
