Mechanism of the long-B prokaryotic Argonaute-mediated nuclease activation in bacterial immunity
Abstract Prokaryotic Argonautes (pAgos) are widely distributed and provide immunity against invading DNA. Based on their domain architecture, pAgos are classified into three major groups: long-A, long-B, and short pAgos. Among them, long-B pAgos remain the least understood subgroup. Here, we show that a long-B pAgo-nuc...
