Retrons are toxin-antitoxin systems protecting bacteria against bacteriophages via abortive infection. The Retron-Eco1 antitoxin is formed by a reverse transcriptase (RT) and a non-coding RNA (ncRNA)/multi-copy single-stranded DNA (msDNA) hybrid that neutralizes an uncharacterized toxic effector. Ye...

Retrons are prokaryotic reverse transcriptase systems that produce multicopy single-stranded DNA (msDNA), yet the principles by which they mediate antiviral defense remain largely unresolved. Here, we dissect the mechanism of Eco2, a minimal retron composed of a single reverse transcriptase–nuclease...

Viruses encode tRNA and anti-retron to evade bacterial immunity
Retrons are prokaryotic genetic elements involved in anti-phage defense and consist of a non-coding RNA, a reverse transcriptase (RT), and various effector proteins. Retron-Eco7 (previously known as Retron-Ec78) from Escherichia coli encodes two effector proteins (a PtuA ATPase and a PtuB nuclease) ...

Mapping of mutations that alleviate a retron-mediated phenotype in Salmonella
Retrons are bacterial genetic retroelements that encode reverse transcriptase capable of producing multicopy single-stranded DNA (msDNA) and function as antiphage defense systems. Phages employ several strategies to counter the host defense systems, but no mechanisms for evading retrons are known. H...
