Very excited about this work from graduate student Laura Chacon Machado now published in Mobile DNA, “A family of Tn7-like transposons evolved to target CRISPR repeats”!

#CRISPR revolutionized medicine, but where did its RNA-guided mechanisms come from? Using #AI, we unearthed new Cas13s and found they evolved from toxin-antitoxins, revealing how nature created these amazing reprogrammable molecules. Discover the recipe: doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…

Transposons, or “jumping genes” – DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another – are key to bacterial evolution and the development of antibiotic resistance. Cornell researchers have discovered a new mechanism these genes use to survive and propagate in

Researchers Cornell CALS and colleagues have discovered a new method that “jumping genes,” or transposons, use to survive and propagate in bacteria with linear DNA, with applications in biotechnology and drug development. Science Magazine Joseph E. Peters news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

Joseph E. Peters Very cool story lead by Joseph E. Peters reveals another level of how transposons battle with their hosts. Grateful to have had a chance to participate with Popo popo, Joe and the team!
