The paper identifies a prophage-encoded sRNA, svsR, that reduces lytic phage infection in AIEC by repressing maltodextrin transport genes, thereby limiting phage receptor expression.

This study characterizes the bacteriophage phiBB-1 using proteomics and long-read sequencing, revealing its packaging mechanisms and role in gene transfer in Borrelia burgdorferi.

This study deletes Pf prophages from P. aeruginosa isolates and examines their impact on quorum sensing, biofilm formation, and virulence traits.

The paper presents the cryo-EM structure of the type I-F CRISPR surveillance complex and shows a conformational change that exposes a nuclease recruitment helix homologous to an anti-CRISPR protein.
