Most #bacterial #immune systems raise an alarm when they sense a #phage. This Primer explores a @plosbiology.org study showing how type II Panoptes reverses this logic by maintaining a quiet signal & sensing infection through its sudden disappearance 🧪 Paper: buff.ly/1ixwg9v Primer: buff.ly/WmnHZBp

Type II Panoptes inverts the logic of nucleotide signaling in bacterial immunity. Top: In type III CRISPR-Cas, Cas10 synthesizes cyclic oligoadenylates (cAn) only upon infection; the signal binds and activates a CARF effector, arresting growth. Type II Panoptes does the reverse. Its mCpol enzyme produces cA3 constitutively at low levels, and this signal keeps the CARF-TM effector repressed. Infection is sensed not as the appearance of a signal, but as its disappearance: when phage enzymes (Acb1 given as an example) deplete cA3, the effector is released and growth arrests. Bottom: Because Acb1 evolved to disable cyclic-nucleotide defenses such as type III CRISPR, a phage carrying it strips cA3 as collateral damage and triggers Panoptes. A phage lacking Acb1 avoids this trap but remains vulnerable to CRISPR. Together, the two systems could impose an evolutionary trade-off on the phage.

#Phages can evade #bacterial #immunity by disrupting #antiviral signals like cA3, triggering Panoptes defense systems. @mfwhite2.bsky.social &co show that Type II Panoptes detects cA3 loss and activates a CARF-TM effector to disrupt membranes & stop infection @plosbiology.org 🧪 buff.ly/1ixwg9v

Left: Organisation and mechanism of the Panoptes System. In type I Panoptes systems, mCpol is constitutively active, generating signalling molecules that inactivate the cognate effector, 2TMβ. When an infecting phage expresses a sponge protein, the cyclic oligonucleotide pool is depleted. The Panoptes effector oligomerises, leading to membrane disruption and growth arrest or cell death. Right: CARF-TM model structure and cA3 binding. Alphafold3 model of CARF-TM in complex with cA3, including POPG molecules to simulate the membrane bilayer. The position mutated to generate the truncated CARF protein is shown by black arrows.
