Expanding our understanding of dual-pathway transposition (1 - plasmids; 2 - chromosomal attachment sites) with Tn7-like elements one family at a time. New preprint from bioinformatics wizard popo on Tn7-CRISPR-Cas12k

Excited to be a part of this awesome work from Yao Shen and Alba Guarne lab! Finally get to see this piece of the mighty Tn7 transposon!

Congrats to Liz Kellogg ❄️🔬 and co for the first lab pre-print and very happy to be on board! More Tn7-like transposon structure and mechanism to see, this time of the #CRISPR-Cas wielding RNA-guided variety.

Happy #TransposonDay2021 from the Peters Lab at Cornell University, Barbara McClintock's training ground!

🔥hot off the press 🔥 It's been an exciting few months 😊 Kellogg lab's first paper with Joseph E. Peters now out in Science science.sciencemag.org/content/early/…

Very happy to announce our TnsB paper is out! It includes 2.7 Å cryo-EM structure of transposase bound to transposon end. Wonderful collaboration with Joseph E. Peters. #cryoEM IIMCB, Warsaw, Poland Structural Biology PL FNP Foundation for Polish Science doi.org/10.1016/j.molc…
