This study shows that shorter amplicons in dPCR lead to higher AAV genome copy numbers, indicating heat-induced fragmentation affects quantification.

This study investigates prophage-like elements in Bacillus subtilis across global and local scales, revealing their diversity, integration patterns, and potential impact on host evolution and physiology.

The paper shows that the CBASS system in bacteria uses protein conjugation to regulate nucleotide cyclase activity, keeping it inactive until phage infection triggers its release.
