mazF: type II addiction module mRNA interferase toxin [1]

There is a crystal structure: 2MF2

Under normal conditions, MazE sequesters MazF rendering it inert. Under stress conditions, TrfA-augmented ClpCP proteolyzes MazE, MazF binds to UACAU sequences in mRNA transcripts and cleaves them resulting in de novo translation shutdown.
