Dual phage sensing activates an RNA-targeting reverse transcriptase for anti-phage defense

Xin-Yang Wei, Hua Qi, Xin-Yi Song, Linshu Li, Yushan Xia, Juntao Zhang, Jia Ning

This study identifies DRT4 as a dual-sensor immune system that uses phage-derived signals to activate an RNA-targeting reverse transcriptase for anti-phage defense.
