I'm excited to be able to share a new #publication in my first week on mstdn.science!

We investigated recent literature and speculated on the ecological and functional roles that #bacteriophages (#phages ) can play in different types of environments. We use 5 ecological models to describe the phage-host interactions and review the types of functional gene content contributions phages make to a microbiome.

Hello! The French Phage Network spreads away from Twitter ;-) #Phages.fr brings together people working on bacteriophages in different research institutes in France such as CNRS, Ifremer, Institut Pasteur and INRAE, hospitals but also companies. Scientists from other European countries and beyond (Switzerland, Belgium, Canada,...) also actively participate in the Phages.fr network. ❤️ Everything related to #phage

#Introduction — I am a group leader in #microbiology #genomics #genetics at #Inserm . My lab studies how #bacteria defend themselves against their #viruses , #phages. We try to understand the #ecology and #evolution of anti-phage systems, their molecular mechanisms and their conservation with eukaryotic immune systems!
We also do some #citizenscience to find #drugs in the soil #sciencealapelle, try to share the joy of doing science beyond the borders of our lab and make science more inclusive.

Prokaryotic innate immune sensing of viruses!

When we talk about conserved immune responses, ability to detect viral intracellular infection stretches all the way back to bacteria too...

Direct activation of a bacterial innate immune system by a viral capsid protein - Nature

Genetic, biochemical and structural studies provide insights into the function of Escherichia coli CapRelSJ46 as a fused anti-phage toxin–antitoxin system that binds SECΦ27 Gp57 capsid protein.
