Embracing minimalism - “owning only what adds value to your life” - this little #phage is revealing how to evolve new traits for host-killing without acquisition of new genes. Isolated on Wurundjeri country, in a very cool partnership @MonashBDI

Here's our model of how NINJ1 oligomerization is a two step process where a first signal leads to NINJ1 oligomerization and cell swelling functionalizes the oligomers into lesions. https://t.co/Iyq0XUtWi4
