  • X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM and biochemical analysis provide insight into the assembly of the bacterial Gabija complex, an anti-phage system, and reveal how viruses can evade this defence mechanism.

  • We identified Tad1, a large family of phage-encoded proteins that inhibit Thoeris immunity, and define the chemical structure of a central immune signalling molecule, showing a new mode of action by which pathogens can suppress host immunity.

  • In response to phage infection, the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain protein ThsB of the type II Thoeris defence system produces histidine conjugated to ADP-ribose, which stimulates bacterial defence by interacting with the Macro domain of the ThsA membrane effector protein.

  • Caspase recruitment domains (CARDs) are present in defence systems that protect bacteria against phage, where the bacterial CARD domain is essential for protease-mediated activation of bacterial gasdermins that promote cell death.

  • A study shows that many phages are capable of evading antiphage defence systems of bacteria by reconstituting NAD+ from its degradation products in infected cells.

  • A study using a biochemical screen of 57 phages in two bacterial species identifies and characterizes proteins enabling phages to evade CBASS and Pycsar immune systems, and describes the mechanisms involved.
