edze westra and I wrote a summary of the fantastic paper from the Penadés lab by Alfred Fillol-Salom et al. published in Cell last month (>> doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…) Fascinating to see how competition between MGEs shapes bacterial immunity! doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…
Phage satellites ride on coat-“tails”. #Phage satellite family encodes all proteins to produce capsids-where satellite genomes are exclusively packaged-& only parasitizes phage tails to produce particles د.ناصر القريني Nasser Alqurainy Miguel-Romero Alfred Fillol José R Penadés cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Latest from the lab! Here we report the discovery of widespread famly of PICIs that just hijacks tails from their helper phages. Amazing collaboration with Eduardo Rocha Jorge Moura de Sousa JChen Lab. Fantastic work from د.ناصر القريني Nasser Alqurainy Miguel-Romero & Alfred Fillol cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Great news! Alvaro Sanchez Lab and I have been awarded with two ERC consolidator grants by European Research Council (ERC)!! Amazing news for our labs, the Centro Nacional de Biotecnología (CSIC) , CSIC , and our department. Really exciting years coming up. #EUfunded #ERCCoG
Jorge Moura de Sousa Alfred Fillol José R Penadés & Eduardo Rocha did a beautiful work identifying thousands of #phage satellites across species. Love the new version with the co-occurrence of P4s, PICIs and cfPICIs! academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…
Last days to apply to our open PhD student position (4 years) in our group! Join us to work in the development & study of microreactors for solar fuels & chemicals! Deadline June 23rd! sgr.urv.cat/cgi-bin/progra… join our multidisciplinary team Facultat Química URV deadline 23/06 please RT
A study in Nature Communications explores the distribution, evolution and functions of the K1 capsule at a population level and its important role in the pathogenesis of E. coli. go.nature.com/42SBl3Q
PICIs as a Diagnostic Platform to Capture and Detect Bacterial Pathogens 🧬🧪🧫 Excited to share this story in Advanced Sci News from my PhD back at University of Glasgow with José R Penadés & Jon Cooper Using #phage #satellites and low-cost #diagnostics #PoC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
Yes, I was luckly in a great conference #PVA2023 with a talk on PICIs. It is quite nice for me to have a gooood time with so many experts on phages/virus. Thanks everyone for help, especially the PVA Organising Committee and my cryptic bosses Alfred Fillol José R Penadés
We are looking for a candidate for the PhD Project “Study of Phage-Inducible Chromosomal Islands (PICI) and their helper phages inter-relationship, key in virulence and bacterial adaptation. If you are interested, send your CV to [email protected] before 28th of April of 2024
Thrilled to share my first first-author paper is out today Nature Communications !nature.com/articles/s4146… We discovered a new anti-phage system family, Tail assembly inhibition (Tai), found in 17 species.
