The paper shows a mobile intron in bacteriophage ΦPA3 uses its homing endonuclease to interfere with co-infecting phage ΦKZ, providing a competitive reproductive advantage.

The paper shows that Chimalliviridae form a lipid membrane-bound EPI vesicle during early infection, which hosts transcription of the phage genome, and demonstrates the necessity of a second compartment, the phage nucleus, for genome replication.

The paper identifies a core genome of nucleus-forming bacteriophages and characterizes the replication mechanism of Erwinia phage RAY.

The paper visualizes the subcellular organization of mature viral particles in nucleus-forming jumbo phages, revealing a structured assembly process called phage bouquets.

This study shows that during Bacillus subtilis sporulation, the cell division machinery is asymmetrically localized, leading to different cell fates.

This study identifies novel Streptomyces strains and phages with potential for antibiotic discovery and genetic manipulation.

This study identifies conserved bacterial-fungal interactions across 16 bacterial-fungal pairs, revealing that fungi modulate iron and biotin availability and produce uncharacterized antibiotics.

This study uses cryo-electron tomography to visualize Bacillus subtilis sporulation, revealing new insights into the engulfment process and the role of the SpoIIDMP complex in membrane migration.

This study identifies cell wall remodeling as the mechanism driving membrane movement during Bacillus subtilis sporulation.
