Bacterial retrons function in anti-phage defense

A. Millman, A. Bernheim, A. Stokar-Avihail, T. Fedorenko, M. Voichek, A. Leavitt, R. Sorek

This study identifies retrons as anti-phage defense systems in bacteria, showing they confer phage resistance through a three-component mechanism involving RT, non-coding RNA, and an effector protein.
