Crystal structure of the BREX phage defence protein BrxA (2022)
Journal Article

Bacteria are constantly challenged by bacteriophage (phage) infection and have developed multitudinous and varied resistance mechanisms. Bacteriophage Exclusion (BREX) systems protect from phage infection by generating methylation patterns at non-pal... Read More about Crystal structure of the BREX phage defence protein BrxA.

A widespread family of WYL-domain transcriptional regulators co-localises with diverse phage defence systems and islands (2022)
Journal Article

Bacteria are under constant assault by bacteriophages and other mobile genetic elements. As a result, bacteria have evolved a multitude of systems that protect from attack. Genes encoding bacterial defence mechanisms can be clustered into “defence is...
