MADS, an anti-phage defense. Alice Maestri Anne Chevallereau edze westra describe an innate immune system, MADS (methylation-associated defense system), that interacts with #CRISPR-Cas in its native host to provide strong & long-term protection against #phages cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Shared evolutionary roots for viral defense. New work from Daan F van den Berg Ana Rita Costa & Esser Stan Brouns discovers bacterial homologs of eukaryotic antiviral defenses and demonstrates the anti-phage activity for six previously uncharacterized systems cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Bitter-sweet result. Our paper is out in Nature, but sometimes you're forced to hide your affiliation to make it happen. Viruses encode tRNAs to circumvent tRNA-targeting immune systems, like PARIS. Thanks to David Bikard, Wiedenheft Lab and the teams. nature.com/articles/s4158…
