This system was discovered using the [defense island](/general-concepts/defense-islands) concept :ref{doi=10.1126/science.aar4120}. However, this system do not show any activity against phages, this system provides a resistance against plasmid transformation :ref{doi=10.1126/science.aar4120,10.1016/j.molcel.2022.09.008}.
Wadjet was shown to possess an anti-plasmid activity via close, circular DNA cleavage :ref{doi=10.1098/rstb.2004.1606}. JetA, B and C were shown to form a complex which acts as a sensor detecting the foreign DNA using topology sensing. The JetD protein forms a homodimeric endonuclease that cleaves double-stranded DNA. JetD needs to be in contact with the JetABC complex to be able to cleave DNA.
