Convergent mutations in phage virion assembly proteins enable evasion of Type I CBASS immunity
2023-05-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> CBASS is an anti-phage defense system that protects bacteria from phage infection and is evolutionarily related to human cGAS-STING immunity. cGAS-STING signaling is initiated by viral DNA but the stage of phage replication which activates bacterial CBASS remains unclear. Here we define the specificity of Type I CBASS immunity using a comprehensive analysis of 975 operon-phage pairings and show t...
