Borvo
Contributors: Héloïse Georjon
Description
Borvo is a single-gene anti-phage system that was identified through bioinformatic prediction and experimental validation (N/A) .
Molecular mechanisms
Mutations in the phage DNA polymerase can allow phages to escape Borvo defense, indicating that it could be the trigger of the system (N/A) . Borvo is a suspected abortive infection (N/A) . However, as far as we are aware, the precise molecular mechanism of Borvo is unknown.
Example of genomic structure
The Borvo is composed of 1 protein: BovA.
Here is an example found in the RefSeq database:
The Borvo system in Enterobacter cloacae complex sp. ECL78 (GCF_019056615.1, NZ_CP077660) is composed of 1 protein: BovA (WP_126517459.1)
Distribution of the system among prokaryotes
