The paper maps T6SS effector landscapes in Pantoea agglomerans using proteomics and genomics, revealing dynamic genomic hotspots with offensive and defensive systems.

This study shows phage-encoded homing endonucleases reduce bacterial immunity by inhibiting GAPS4, a DNase defense system, thereby enhancing phage fitness.

The paper describes a genetic system in mice that produces predominantly female offspring without affecting litter size or introducing genetic modifications into the offspring.

The paper describes a method for efficiently engineering phage genomes without using selection or CRISPR-Cas systems, achieving mutation rates of 1-14% for single-base substitutions, deletions, and insertions in three phages.

The paper demonstrates a genetic system that biases the sex ratio in mice by causing male embryos to self-destruct through targeted gene disruption.
