Retrons and several defense-associated reverse transcriptases (DRTs) synthesize non-genomic DNA for bacteriophage immunity. In some instances, this non-genomic DNA is of undefined, semirandom sequence. How undefined DNA sequences impart antiphage defense is not known. Herewe report the cryo-EM structure and functional characterization of the DRT1 antiphage defense system. We show that DRT1 performs template-free, protein-primed DNA synthesis to generate semirandom DNA adducts. DNA synthesis acti ...[more]
