## Description
Wadjet is a defense system discovered in 2018 :ref{doi=10.1126/science.aar4120}. This system is named after the goddess [Wadjet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wadjet) matron and protector of the lower Egypt.
This system was discovered using the [defense island](/general_concept/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}.

This system is composed of 4 genes: JetA, JetB, JetC and JetD. JetA, JetB and JetC were found to be related to MukF, MukE and MukB :ref{doi=10.1126/science.aar4120,10.1098/rstb.2004.1606} housekeeping genes. JetC, related to MukB is a SMC containing protein.
