๐ฃHuge preprint ๐
Today we share something our group has been working toward for a long time, led by @lucasmoriniere.bsky.social We asked can we predict which receptor a phage targets from its genome sequence alone? For most phages, we couldnโt. So Lucas set out to do something I had only dreamed of.
Looking forward to presenting at ASM Microbe 2026! @asm.org
Grateful for the opportunity to share our work and learn from so many brilliant researchers in one place. See you in Washington, D.C. #ASMicrobe invt.io/1bxbe1gvcjt
Yet another awesome single-phage paper from Ido Golding's lab #phagesky

@paulturnerlab.bsky.social and I wrote a perspective on the need and recently developed approaches to study individual virus traits in the most numerous viruses on our planet (phages).
Let's move beyond measuring the mean #phagesky

How do #bacteriophage life history strategies influence host invasion & inter- #phage competition in #biofilms? This study shows that spatial structure shapes invasion success, favoring temperate phages over lytic ones when diffusion is limited @plosbiology.org ๐งช plos.io/47Aripq

Marissa Gittrich led the work
Klebsiella phage biology has focused almost entirely on capsulated strains, but capsule loss is the #1 resistance mechanism under phage predation. We used a naturally acapsular host to reveal the receptor landscape
Now @paulturnerlab.bsky.social on phage therapy
