Very happy our paper on Zorya anti-phage defense system is now published in nature! 🥳 Big congrats to first authors haidai HU and Philipp Popp and all other authors! Wonderful collab with Marc Erhardt and SimonJackson #cryoEM CPRatUCPH Københavns Uni nature.com/articles/s4158…

Beautiful work on a crazy anti-phage system!

Evolutionary necessity for immune innovation harnessed components of the bacterial flagellar motor into a wild defense system - Zorya One of the most intriguing and sophisticated bacterial defense systems out there Congratulations Nicholas Taylor and colleagues!

Huge congrats haidai HU Victor Klein-Sousa Aritz Roa Freddie Martin Yong Wang Alexander Harms et al. 😃!

Thrilled to share that our collaborative work, led brilliantly by haidai HU, is now published in nature! Huge thanks to the incredible Nicholas M. I. Taylor Lab team - it was a joy to work with you. Grateful to Marc Erhardt, SimonJackson, and Alexander Harms for their invaluable contributions!

Our paper out nature: CARD domains mediate anti-phage defense in bacterial gasdermin systems CARDs are essential for caspase recruitment in inflammasome activation. We now find them in bacterial immune systems Congrats Tanita Wein! Thanks Kranzusch lab! tinyurl.com/CA88DD

With José R Penadés, we challenged AI co-scientist Google AI to generate hypotheses. In just 2 days, it recapitulated our unpublished, experimentally confirmed mechanism for how cf-PICIs spread between bacterial species! 🤯 Imperial College London Fleming Initiative tinyurl.com/3byyaeh2

Join us and Marc Erhardt to explore phage-bacteria interactions, with a strong focus on microscopy techniques. Looking for a motivated PhD student! 🔬 Interested? Apply here 👉 [nature.com/naturecareers/…] 🔄 Please re-share to spread the word!

And here it is, the completed BASEL collection finally published as early access in PLOS Biology - see the thread for more details. 🤗🧬🎣

Exited to share our preprint on the structure of a Salmonella contractile injection system 🥳 Wonderful work by first author Rooshanie Ejaz Ejaz and Claudia Kielkopf, Freddie Martin, Marta Siborova, Eva Maria Steiner-Rebrova 🇺🇦🇦🇹🇸🇪, great collab with Marc Erhardt CPRatUCPH #cryoem shorturl.at/QHLpm

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory - absolutely humbled by the beauty of this place and the ubiquitous spirit of the Delbrück "phage group" era 🧬🌊🦪
