RADAR contains an adenosine triphosphatase (RdrA) and an adenosine deaminase (RdrB). Here, we report cryo-EM structures of RdrA, RdrB, and currently identified RdrA-RdrB complexes in the presence or absence of RNA and ATP. RdrB assembles into a dodecameric cage with catalytic pockets facing outward, while RdrA adopts both autoinhibited tetradecameric and activation-competent heptameric rings. Structural and functional data suggest a model in which RNA is loaded through the bottom section of the RdrA ring and translocated along its inner channel, a process likely coupled with ATP-binding status. Intriguingly, up to twelve RdrA rings can dock one RdrB cage with precise alignments between deaminase catalytic pockets and RNA-translocation channels, indicative of enzymatic coupling of RNA translocation and deamination. Our data uncover an interesting mechanism of enzymatic coupling and anti-phage defense through supramolecular assemblies.
