On the limits of 16S rRNA gene-based metagenome prediction and functional profiling

Microbial evolution through horizontal gene transfer by mobile genetic elements

We are looking for a PI at Asst. Prof. level in Molecular Microbiology to strengthen our Infection Biology group! Interested to join our team focusing on molecular mechanisms of bacteria-host interactions and host-pathogen communication?

Direct RNA sequencing coupled with adaptive sampling enriches RNAs of interest in the transcriptome

A so-called genetic switch determines the mechanisms by which bacteriophage λ transitions to its dual lifestyles—lytic or lysogenic. This #EcoSalPlus review describes the underlying molecular details of λ lysogeny as it is currently understood. https://t.co/su8Md10Y68

Metagenomic assembly is the main bottleneck in the identification of mobile genetic elements
