🛠️💉It's time for engineering contractile injection systems! @chipericson.bsky.social & @davidschaumann.bsky.social introduce programmable CIS - PROCIS, combining tail length control, non-native cargo loading, and cell retargeting all in one system! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 🧵 1/5
Check out this exciting new paper in @currentbiology.bsky.social from my friend and collaborator @stephaniesimone.bsky.social’s lab on the genomics of novel rhizobium endosymbiosis www.cell.com/current-biol...
Enter PHLEGM! 💻🧬 We developed the Phage Homomer Level Estimate and Generation Method to infer oligomeric state using AlphaFold-Multimer and interface quality assessment. We applied it to >22,000 sequences, revealing massive structural diversity. (2/n)
Interesting new tool to extract phylogenies from images (Tremble). It is crazy that this is still something we have to do. doi.org/10.1093/bioi...

AbstractSummary. Phylogenetic trees are ubiquitous and central to biology, but most published trees are available only as visual diagrams and not in the ma
Abstract. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) have repeatedly been detected with molecular methods on human skin, yet their persistence, physiological traits,
