Function
THSA_BACAY Probable membrane protein component of the Thoeris antiviral defense system, composed of ThsA and ThsB. Expression of ThsA and ThsB in B.subtilis (strain BEST7003) confers resistance to phages SBSphiC, SBSphiJ and SPO1 (PubMed:29371424). Activation by a signal generated by ThsB leads to phage resistance (By similarity).[UniProtKB:J8G6Z1][1]
