Here, we present the biochemical and structural characterization of two CBASS systems, composed of CdnG and Cap5, from Asticcacaulis sp. and Lactococcus lactis. We show that CdnG from Asticcacaulis sp. synthesizes 3',2'-cGAMP in vitro, and 3',2'-cGAMP is the biological signaling molecule that activates Cap5 for DNA degradation. Crystal structures of Cap5, together with the SAVED domain in complex with 3',2'-cGAMP, provide insight into the architecture of Cap5 as well as molecular recognition of 3',2'-cGAMP by the SAVED domain of Cap5. Amino acid conservation of the SAVED domain of Cap5, together with mutational studies, led us to propose a mechanism of Back-to-Front stacking of two SAVED domains, mediated by 3',2'-cGAMP, to activate HNH nuclease domain for DNA degradation. This study of the most abundant CBASS system provides insights into the mechanisms employed by bacteria in their conflicts against phage.
