Viral satellites exploit phage proteins to escape degradation of the bacterial host chromosome

A. McKitterick, S. Hays, M. Alam, K. Seed

The paper shows that phage satellites like PLE in Vibrio cholerae use phage-encoded helicases to replicate and evade phage-mediated genome degradation.

Competition between mobile genetic elements drives optimization of a phage-encoded CRISPR-Cas system: Insights from a natural arms-race

A. McKitterick, K. LeGault, A. Angermeyer, M. Alam, K. Seed

The paper studies CRISPR-Cas spacer acquisition and interference in a phage-against-mobile-genetic-element arms race, finding that chromosomal spacers can block PLE mobilization.
