The paper develops a bioinformatic pipeline using small serine recombinases to identify antiphage defense systems in bacterial genomes and metagenomes, finding they are genetically linked to these systems.

This study identifies TslM as a novel reverse domain arrangement substrate of the Staphylococcus aureus type VII secretion system, revealing its lipase activity and secretion mechanism.

This study identifies a family of antibacterial proteins from Gram-positive bacteria that kill a broad range of bacteria through receptor-independent entry and degradation of essential cellular components.

The paper identifies three defence islands in Serratia spp. with mixed cargo of anti-phage systems, virulence factors, and anti-bacterial modules, revealing a widespread trend of co-accumulation.

This study identifies eight new subtypes of the type VII secretion system in Gram-positive bacteria, revealing unexpected diversity in their composition and potential functions.
