## Description ## Description
AVAST (antiviral ATPases/NTPases of the STAND superfamily) is a group of anti-phage defense systems, active against some dsDNA phages. Avs (antiviral ATPases/NTPases of the STAND superfamily) is a group of anti-phage defense systems, active against some dsDNA phages.
AVAST systems are composed of NTPases of the STAND (signal transduction ATPases with numerous associated domains) superfamily (1). STAND-NTPases typically contain a C-terminal helical sensor domain that activates the N-terminal effector domain upon target recognition (1). Avs systems are composed of NTPases of the STAND (signal transduction ATPases with numerous associated domains) superfamily (1). STAND-NTPases typically contain a C-terminal helical sensor domain that activates the N-terminal effector domain upon target recognition (1).
In eukaryotes, STAND-NTPases are associated with programmed cell death, therefore Gao and colleagues hypothesized that AVAST might function through an Abortive infection mechanism.
