UniProtKB description: BREX systems (bacteriophage exclusion) provide immunity against bacteriophage. Part of a type 1 BREX system which protects against dsDNA phage. This system allows phage adsorption but prevents phage DNA replication, without degradation of the phage DNA. Methylation of bacterial DNA by PglX guides self/non-self discrimination.
