Proportion of genome encoding the AbiP2 system for the 14 phyla with more than 50 genomes in the RefSeq database.

Experimental validation

AbiP2 systems were experimentally validated using:

Subsystem RT-Abi-P2 with a system from Escherichia coli in Escherichia coli has an anti-phage effect against T5 (Gao et al., 2020)

A system from lactococcal plasmid in lactococci has an anti-phage effect against 936 (Chopin et al., 2005)
