Abstract

Toxin-antitoxin systems can defend bacteria against phages by shutting down infected cells, but the links between their molecular mechanisms and biological functions have remained underexplored. LeRoux et al. now show how the DNA-targeting ADP-ribosylation activity of DarTG impairs phage replication but is overcome by dedicated viral inhibitors and evolved tolerance.
