For the first time, scientists have performed targeted mutations on an episymbiosis-determining pathway. In a new study on Saccharibacteria, AFI researchers used advanced techniques to observe pili that drive motility and host attachment. https://t.co/cVDIt31zWC

Our study on TM7 and its host protection against the phage is out! I guess parasites don't like to share their hosts!
ADA Forsyth scientists, led by @he_xuesong , discover a third player in the phage-bacterial arms race, a nanosized epibiotic parasite, TM7x, which helps its host bacterium achieve resistance to lytic phages. Click here to learn more: https://t.co/yIyMWqbkDZ
