Indigenous phages play a key role in the spread of extracellular antibiotic resistance genes (eARGs), and micro/nanocontaminants can exacerbate this process. However, the specific roles and mechanisms of phage communities in this process are still no...
The increasing use of CRISPR-Cas9 in medicine, agriculture, and synthetic biology has accelerated the drive to discover new CRISPR-Cas inhibitors as potential mechanisms of control for gene editing applications. Many anti-CRISPRs have been found that...
Many of the sequenced bacterial and archaeal genomes encode regions of viral provenance. Yet, not all of these regions encode bona fide viruses. Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are thought to be former viruses that are now maintained in genomes of some b...
