UniProtKB description: Antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system which inhibits the post-segregational killing (PSK) of plasmid-free cells, also referred to as a plasmid addiction system. Labile antitoxin with a half-life of about 1 hour in the presence of CcdB. Binds to and blocks the activity of CcdB; will also remove bound CcdB protein from the CcdB-GyrA complex by forming a CcdA-CcdB complex, a process termed rejuvenation. The N-terminal 36 residues are not required for rejuventation. Functions as a transcriptional corepressor for the ccdAB operon, repression also requires CcdB.
