The paper shows that CBASS effector CapV limits phage production without reducing cell viability in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by interfering with phage capsid assembly.

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa inactivates its type I R-M system via proteolysis at high temperatures, leading to prolonged genomic hypomethylation and a memory effect lasting over 60 generations.
