Abstract

Retrons are notable for their anti-phage defense functions and genome engineering applications. However, only a few retrons have been well characterized. In the August issue of Nature Biotechnology, Khan et al.¹ present hundreds of experimentally studied retrons, which are critical for bacterial immunity research and retron-based genome engineering technologies.
