White smoke, we have not only a new pope, but also 16 new anti-phage systems in integrons ! In collaboration with the @amazeld lab, we show in our new paper that cassettes of these large platforms encode known anti-phage defenses and uncovered 16 new ones. https://t.co/TX2FBmlkiV

I am in awe of the near-infinite complexity of Earth's lifeforms. Here Vanya Zheludev discovers a new and widespread class of viroid-like entities, #Obelisks, hidden in our own bodies.
One for the textbooks! @CellCellPress 🔗: https://t.co/t4SXD8vnft

Happy to share our work in @NatureMicrobiol. Gamma-Mobile-Trio systems are mobile elements rich in bacterial defensive and offensive tools.

Let's not underestimate Integrons this time. They can bring cassettes from Chromosomal Integrons in many genomes. And you know what? These are packed with defence systems too!!! Check the back-to-back work from @amazeld@CelineLoot@EloiLittner @epcrocha https://t.co/cLwwlSsIPl
Check out our latest preprint! This work was lead by @NicolasKieffe13 with the support of the whole MBA lab, especially @alberto_hca . If you are interested in the intersection between #Phage resistance and #AMR pull the thread!

Our paper about integrons and their fascinating content is on biorXiv🤩Go check out Eloi's thread for a sneak peek of what these big fellas are capable of !
Sedentary chromosomal integrons (SCIs) are biobanks of anti-phage defence systems! In a huge collaboration with the @amazeld lab, we showed that these flexible genetic platforms encode known defences and further discovered 16 new systems. A thread (1/n)
