## Description
Gabija is named after the Lithuanian spirit of fire, protector of home and family. It is a two gene defense system found in 8.5% of the 4360 bacterial and archeal genomes that were initially analyzed in :ref{doi=10.1126/science.aar4120}. Both proteins are necessary for defense and are forming a heteromeric octamer complex: GajA forms a central tetramer surrounded by two GajB dimers :ref{doi=10.1038/s41586-023-06855-2 ,10.1093/nar/gkad951}. A phage protein inhibiting Gabija function was described, Gabidja anti defense 1 (Gad1) :ref{doi=10.1038/s41586-023-06855-2 , 10.1038/s41586-023-06869-w}.
