© 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. All rights reserved. RelBE of Escherichia coli K-12 is a paradigm TA locus. Here, I describe the discovery of relBE and review the genetic, physiological, biochemical and structural analyses that have led to important insights into TA biology. Five relBE homologues of K-12 are also described while the 6th (mqsRA) is treated in a separate Chapter. Finally, a discussion of the possible biological functions of relBE and other type II TA loci sets the stage for future work on prokaryotic type II TA loci.
