Experimental validation

AbiC systems were experimentally validated using:

A system from Klebsiella pneumoniae's PICI (KpCIFDAARGOS_1313) in Escherichia coli has an anti-phage effect against T5, Lambda, HK97, HK544, HK578, T7 (Fillol-Salom et al., 2022)

A system from Klebsiella pneumoniae's PICI (KpCIFDAARGOS_1313) in Salmonella enterica has an anti-phage effect against P22, BTP1, ES18 (Fillol-Salom et al., 2022)

A system from Klebsiella pneumoniae's PICI (KpCIFDAARGOS_1313) in Klebsiella pneumoniae has an anti-phage effect against Pokey, Raw, Eggy (Fillol-Salom et al., 2022)

A system from lactococcal plasmid in lactococci has an anti-phage effect against 936, P335 (Chopin et al., 2005)
