Avs2 drives non-canonical tetrameric assembly of trypsin-like domain for anti-phage defense
Lijie Guo, Pingping Huang, Wenhui Liu…·Meirong Chen
The paper elucidates the molecular mechanism of the Avs2-trypsin-MBL system, revealing how phage terminase recognition triggers tetramerization and activation of the system for anti-phage defense.

The anti-phage mechanism of a widespread trypsin-MBL module
Pingping Huang, Jingxian Liu, Lijie Guo…·Meirong Chen
This study identifies a trypsin-MBL module as a bacterial immune effector that uses proteolytic activation to enable DNase activity against invading nucleic acids while preventing self-toxicity.

The mechanism of bacterial defense system DdmDE from Lactobacillus casei
Pingping Huang, Purui Yan, Lijie Guo…·Meirong Chen
This study reveals the mechanism of the DdmDE system in Lactobacillus casei, showing how it degrades plasmids through a guided helicase-nuclease activity.
