Abstract Phages are guilty of killing daily almost half bacterial cells, while bacteria have developed defense mechanisms that number in the dozens. Individual systems gained and lost by genomes same species, depending on their fitness advantage. Thus, some a certain combination systems, other act as reservoir for rest thus constituting so-called pan-immune system species. Here we analyzed thousands bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii , an opportunistic pathogen humans great clinical concern, found 81 different heterogeneously distributed. By analyzing how these combine, more than lack universal DNA-methylating restriction-modification (R-M) harbor alternative innate SspBCDE performs DNA phosphorothioate modification. In addition, adaptive CRISPR-Cas could synergistically to R-M based frequency co-appearance. The presence one or modulate evolution this causing them present profile phages integrated into genome. We also observed many is associated with higher prophages, which be due fact prophage carries system, would not need environments where phage absent.

Abstract Defense genes gather in diverse types of genomic islands bacteria and provide immunity against viruses other genetic mobile elements. Here, we disclose pipolins, previously found bacterial phyla encoding a primer-independent PolB, as new category widespread defense islands. The analysis the occurrence structure pipolins revealed that they are commonly integrative elements flanked by direct repeats Gammaproteobacteria genomes, mainly Escherichia, Vibrio or Aeromonas, often taking up known integration hotspots. Remarkably, integrase dynamics correlates with alternative spots enables lifestyles, from to mobilizable plasmid such members genera Limosilactobacillus, Pseudosulfitobacter Staphylococcus. Pipolins harbor minimal core large cargo module enriched for factors. In addition, weighted gene repertoire relatedness many these factors actively exchanged These findings indicate and, potentially islands, act orthogonal reservoirs genes, transferable immune autonomous MGEs, suggesting complementary exchange mechanisms populations.
