Retron Eco2, another derivative of TA system HEPN-MntA (doi: 10.1093/nar/gkaa855), works as a trimeric complex that is activated by T2 phage endonuclease DenB, which cleaves msDNA & leads to RNA degradation.
🧬 We discovered how bacteria detect phage infections by sensing fragments of their own degraded DNA.View quoted post on X
