Happy to share our work in Nature Microbiology. Gamma-Mobile-Trio systems are mobile elements rich in bacterial defensive and offensive tools. If you're interested in #Antiphage #T6SS #Vibrio #MGE then this is for you. ๐Ÿงต1/15 rdcu.be/dXMwQ nature.com/articles/s4156โ€ฆ

๐ŸšจNew preprint from our lab! We map the RNA interactions in E. coli infected by lambda, revealing an RNA-driven regulatory layer in phage-host dynamics. We find a phage-encoded sRNA hijacking host replication machinery, impacting the phage cycle.#microbiology #phages Regulating with RNAs in Bacteria and Archaea

What a treat! After far too long, the lab finally took a break for some well-earned fun. We spent the morning biking through Agamon Hula, surrounded by beautiful scenery and nesting birds, and wrapped up with a delicious lunch. Here's to more outings like this in the future! ๐Ÿšฒ
