Exciting approach to decipher two component system networks and their interactions in Streptococcus agalactiae - Arnsud Firon, ⁦⁦MV Mazzuoli⁩ et al.| Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

We discovered a new immune signaling molecule: N7-cADPR N7-cADPR is produced by phage-stimulated TIR proteins. It activates a bacterial caspase, which then degrades essential proteins to curb infection Preprint: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… Congrats @FrancoisRousset & Ilya Osterman

Check out our new pre-print by Mariatou Dramé, Jean-Yves Tinevez, @je_martyn, and Carmen Buchrieser from Microbiology Department at Institut Pasteur, since 1887. We introduce a machine learning model that predicts #Legionella replication in human primary #macrophages with 83% accuracy

🌍Beneath #Earth’s surface lies a hidden viral world! CO₂-rich geysers like Wallender Born🇩🇪 host unique #viruses driving nutrient cycles & shaping #microbial life by “kill-the-winner” dynamics🦠 By @ProbstLab, in our Thematic Issue: Viruses of Microbes academic.oup.com/microlife/arti…
