GAPS4 is a heterotetramer complex that senses broken DNA and degrades it indiscriminately (both phage invaders and the bacterial genome). No fancy “self vs. non-self” tags here. When it detects DNA damage, it goes off.

This is unacceptable. A total disgrace. Shame on the organizers. Leave science out of it! I am appalled to see this in the microbiology community 🦠

Excited to share that we received an ERC Consolidator grant to investigate modular complexity in #T6SS effectors🎉
Grateful to the panel members and reviewers for their support.
Looking for Postdocs/PhDs/RAs interested in joining us to work on this and other exciting projects.

Finishing a fun and interesting visit to IPMB at Academia Sinica. I'm grateful to the YIA for the invitation, especially to Victoria, Dikuan, Chin-Lien and Michelle for organizing everything. Had interesting conversations with students, and it was great seeing Erh-Min Lai and See-Yeun Ting
