DNA phosphorothioate (PT) modification, with a nonbridging phosphate oxygen substituted by sulfur, represents a widespread epigenetic marker in prokaryotes and provides protection against genetic parasites. In the PT-based defense system Ssp, SspABCD confers a single-stranded PT modification of host DNA in the 5′-CPSCA-3′ motif and SspE impedes phage propagation. SspE relies on PT modification in host DNA to exert antiphage activity. Here, structural and biochemical analyses reveal that SspE is preferentially recruited to PT sites mediated by the joint action of its N-terminal domain (NTD) hydrophobic cavity and C-terminal domain (CTD) DNA binding region. PT recognition enlarges the GTP-binding pocket, thereby increasing GTP hydrolysis activity, which subsequently triggers a conformational switch of SspE from a closed to an open state. The closed-to-open transition promotes the dissociation of SspE from self PT-DNA and turns on the DNA nicking nuclease activity of CTD, enabling SspE to accomplish self-nonself discrimination and limit phage predation, even when only a small fraction of modifiable consensus sequences is PT-protected in a bacterial genome. SspABCD–SspE is a phosphorothioation-sensing bacterial defence system. Here, authors find that SspE exploits DNA phosphorothioation-binding preference to modulate its biochemical activities for the self/nonself discrimination and phage resistance.
