The Pseudomonas putida toxin GraT and antitoxin GraA form a type II toxin-antoxin module. Here the authors present the crystal structures of the GraA dimer, GraTA and GraA-DNA complexes and show that GraT contains a functionally important N-terminal intrinsic disordered region that prevents the binding of the GraTA complex to the operator.
