Breakthrough Dramatically Improves Researchers’ Ability to Engineer Plants and Fungi

Tuck*, Adler* et al. reveal that the Hachiman antiphage defense complex broadly inhibits phage replication by indiscriminate DNA degradation. Mechanistic and pharmacological study indicate that this activity is stimulated by apparent loss of genome integrity. The cover image shows an origami representation of the loss of genome integrity. Hachiman was originally named after the protective Shinto deity of war and archery and this cover image draws inspiration from the rich tradition of Japanese origami.
