Abstract
The direct interaction of the Escherichia coli cytotoxin RelE with its specific antidote, RelB, was demonstrated in two ways: (i) copurification of the two proteins and (ii) a positive yeast two-hybrid assay involving the relB and relE genes. In addition, the purified RelE protein exhibited ribosome-binding activity in an in vitro assay, supporting previous observations suggesting that it is an inhibitor of translation.
