A phage-encoded counter-defense inhibits an NAD-degrading anti-phage defense system.
Bacteria contain a diverse array of genes that provide defense against predation by phages. Anti-phage defense genes are frequently located on mobile genetic elements and spread through horizontal gene transfer. Despite the many anti-phage defense systems that have been identified, less is known abo...
