Led by Jakob T Rostøl and Nuria Quiles, with Lasa_Lab, we show that prophages utilise noncontiguous operons to balance immunity and autoimmunity. Our results underscore the essential fine regulation of these processes for prophages' life cycle development.

So proud to share the 1st Riglar lab paper. An amazing effort from Clare Robinson David Carreno Yugueros Tim Weber MRes BSc (hons.) & Mindy Chen Imperial Department of Infectious Disease The Crick! A discovery platform to identify inducible synthetic circuitry from varied microbial sources biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

📢New from the lab. Some years back we surprising found that #Enterobacter cloacae, an #ESKAPE group nosocomial pathogen, shows phenotypic resistance to aminoglycosides. Ana Choi looked into this as an MRes student & Dan Bennison saw it through #amr biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵

Which pathogen factors contribute to the emergence of new AMR bacterial sublineages? Our latest work (bit.ly/46L8Jfn) shows that interbacterial competition of Shigella sonnei with commensal E coli is important, and is mediated by colicins, not a T6SS. More in the 🧵 1/12
