Mithilfe des "Bil"-Systems können Bakterien #Bakteriophagen-Infektionen abwehren, weil es den Aufbau der Phagen stört. The Scientist stellt eine Reihe von Studien dazu vor, u.a. eine von Jens Hör, Nachwuchsgruppenleiter Helmholtz Institute Würzburg (HIRI), in @nature. the-scientist.com/bacteria-disar…

Is it anything Hfq-like (RNA chaperone)? Or similar to CsrA (global translation modulator)? We don't know yet. But as it stands, Bacteroidota RRM proteins appear as excellent candidates to map post-transcriptional networks in gut microbiota species. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Thank you for sharing your valuable insights with us, Rafa Pinilla-Redondo! It was a pleasure to have you as a speaker in the Würzburg Life Science Seminar Series. 🙌🧬

Young RNA biologist and others: The deadline for these attractive group leader positions is this weekend!

The final countdown is on! ⏲️😱 Don’t forget to submit your application by Sunday, January 19, at: helmholtz-hiri.de/en/w1-groups/
