Many prokaryotes employ CRISPR-Cas systems to combat invading mobile genetic elements (MGEs). In response, some MGEs have evolved Anti-CRISPR (Acr) proteins to bypass this immunity, yet the diversity, distribution and spectrum of activity of this immune evasion strategy remain largely unknown. Here, we uncover 11 new type I anti-CRISPR genes encoded on numerous chromosomal and extrachromosomal mobile genetic elements within Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas. Candidate genes were identified adjacent to anti-CRISPR associated gene 5 (aca5) and assayed against a panel of six type I systems: I-F (Pseudomonas, Pectobacterium, and Serratia), I-E (Pseudomonas and Serratia), and I-C (Pseudomonas), revealing the type I-F and/or I-E acr genes and a new aca (aca9). We find that acr genes not only associate with other acr genes, but also with inhibitors of distinct bacterial defense systems. These genomic regions appear to be "anti-defense islands", reminiscent of the clustered arrangement of "defense islands" in prokaryotic genomes. Our findings expand on the diversity of CRISPR-Cas inhibitors and reveal the potential exploitation of acr loci neighborhoods for identifying new anti-defense systems.
