The final version of our #CRISPR - NucC - jumbo #phage paper is out! Access it here: https://t.co/4lPA4GaJwZ @MolecularCell Awesome work led by the fantastic PhD candidate David Mayo Muñoz 🎉 #Dav604 Summary below 👇
Some jumbo phages shield🛡their DNA 🧬within a nucleus structure…so what’s a CRISPR-Cas ✂️ to do? See🧵 summarizing our recent findings on how type III-A CRISPR-Cas RNA-recognition triggers abortive infection via the DNase NucC & so much more! 👇 https://t.co/EYM8SRXdzn
Great chance for a quant. FW ecologist role at @Cawthron_NZ. 5 yrs of exciting fish research and the opportunity to develop your own niche. And live here, next to the sea and mountains where the sun shines!

Another stellar story from @Lucia_M_Malone - using transcriptomics to investigate phage-host dynamics in the presence and absence of CRISPR immunity. Such a neat story!
1/ Another PhD thesis chapter out:
“Type I CRISPR-Cas provides robust immunity but incomplete attenuation of phage-induced cellular stress” in @NAR_Open. https://t.co/BYFdNNlrwx
🎉 Proud to share my 1st first-author paper! Introducing our new tool for defence system identification: PADLOC https://t.co/4OtmqwTCk6 @NAR_Open 📰 (1/10)
Bacterial gene regulation, sorted! Thrilled to finally share the details of SorTn-seq, out in @NatureProtocols! See thread below summarizing our method combining FACS & transposon sequencing to identify regulators!🦠@SimonJacksonNZ@ppgardne@PeterFineran

@PeterFineran@microtago@otago @Cawthron_NZ Thankful for all the great times in the Fineran lab, and now for the opportunity to join a great team @Cawthron_NZ - and convince them how cool phages are ✌️
Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
Today we celebrate the achievements all #WomenInScience have contributed to, and look forward to more women finding their future in STEM. 👩🦱👵🧕👩🦰

Beat Christen from @ETH_en has written a really nice commentary on how we developed a new #high-throughput method of #Tn-seq to identify #CRISPR#regulators that enable bacteria to discriminate plasmid vs phages https://t.co/tks1WH5ahW
