Happy to share our new paper in Nature Microbiology on mapping spatial relationships of the human gut microbiome. We identified distinct spatial hubs between gut bacteria that reflect sub-community assemblies at the micron-scale. Led by Miles Richardson & co nature.com/articles/s4156…

1 year ago, I began to annotate online mobile #integrons their #genecassettes and alleles. I am now freely sharing my data with everyone concerned in #bacterialgenetics or #antibioticresistance. There will be monthly updates available published here: tinyurl.com/Integrons-Anal…

The sequel to our DRT2 story is here, and this one is once again full of surprises! This time around, the Sternberg Lab teamed up with the Wiedenheft Lab to study how DRT9 reverse transcriptases provide antiviral immunity. Here’s what we found: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our newest paper, online today nature! We report the discovery of a highly unusual mechanism of antiviral immunity through the synthesis of long, homopolymeric DNA. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our latest story is now online nature! We discovered a phage defense system that deploys kilobase-long DNA homopolymers to protect against viral infection. Congratulations to all authors, and to the Wiedenheft Lab for a fun and fruitful collaboration! nature.com/articles/s4158…

New pre-print(s) from the Sternberg Lab in collaboration with Leifu Chang! We uncover an unprecedented molecular mechanism of CRISPR-Cas12f-like proteins, which drive RNA-guided transcription independently of canonical promoter motifs. Full story here: tinyurl.com/mr3fd493
