Abstract
The study of bacterial immune systems has recently gained momentum, revealing a fascinating trend: many systems form large supramolecular assemblies. Here, we examine the potential mechanisms underpinning the evolutionary success of these structures, draw parallels to eukaryotic immunity, and offer fresh perspectives to stimulate future research into bacterial immunity.
