Summary: This study reveals a novel antimicrobial agent that activates HigB toxin to degrade mRNA as an antibacterial strategy against antibiotic-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, with a mechanism different from current antibiotics. Additionally, the structure of the HigBA complex and potential catalytic residues of HigB were identified, providing insights into the transcriptional regulation mechanisms and allosteric inhibition of HigB activity.
