Reversible conjugation of a CBASS nucleotide cyclase regulates immune response to phage infection

L. Kruger, L. Gaskell-Mew, S. Graham, S. Shirran, R. Hertel, M. F. White

The paper shows that the CBASS system in bacteria uses protein conjugation to regulate nucleotide cyclase activity, keeping it inactive until phage infection triggers its release.
