A toxin-antitoxin system provides phage defense via DNA damage and repair
Abstract Widespread in bacteria and archaea, toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems have been recently demonstrated to function in phage defense. Here we characterize the anti-phage function of a type IV TA system, ShosTA. Using structural and biochemical approaches, we show that ShosT couples phosphoribosylt...
