Phage Display Derived Antibodies Against Antimicrobial Peptide FsPDF2 Reveal Stress Response in European Beech
Plant defensins (PDFs) are cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that are important components of plant immunity. They occur constitutively in various plant tissues but are also upregulated upo....

Most gender critical religious activists are on a lot of blocklists, and have content warnings on their account, or phage otherwise had their accounts hidden my Bluesky moderation. So the pro-trans rights and GC religious accounts often can’t interact

Templated trimerization of the phage L decoration protein on capsids - PubMed
The 134-residue phage L decoration protein (Dec) forms a capsid-stabilizing homotrimer that has an asymmetric tripod-like structure when bound to phage L capsids. The N-termini of the trimer subunits consist of spatially separated globular OB-fold domains that interact with the virions of phage L or …

We are offering, at the Max von Pettenkofer Institute for Medical Microbiology and Hygiene of Ludwig-Maximilians-University München (city centre), an ERC-funded position as Doctoral scientist/Ph.D. student TV-L E13 (65%) The doctoral research project will be performed in the group of Prof. Dr. Carolin Wendling and address ecological and evolutionary drivers of prophage distribution in common gut commensals and pathogens, using a combination of high-throughput bioinformatic analysis, RNA-seq, and in-vitro microbiology assays. We are seeking a highly motivated young researcher, who would like to pursue a Ph.D. thesis in an interdisciplinary and international research environment. We anticipate applicants with an excellent previous scientific training, very good spoken and written English communication skills, and the ability to work independently as well as part of the ERC-funded PHAGE-PRO team, which will develop a novel form of phage therapy. The successful applicant will have a strong background in bioinformatics. Experience in microbiology, ideally BSL2 pathogens and (pro)phages will be beneficial for successful completion of the project but can in parts be acquired as part of the PhD project. Applicants with a complete undergraduate degree (Master or equivalent) in the life sciences, biomedical or natural sciences will be considered. We offer an excellent research environment with access to state-of-the-art technology and methodologies, an international network, and a group that highly values diversity. The position is available immediately. LMU Munich is committed to increase the number of women in research and teaching. Therefore, the university explicitly encourages qualified female scientists to apply. Applicants with disabilities will be given preference to other candidates with equal qualifications.

I actually have been wondering about this for quite some time now, but never had time to follow it up, hece take this as chance to finally learn about this 😅. Is eDNA 'stored' in (pro)phage actually an established concept or will this only be a thing after your paper?

How I will be watching this years #ERCStG announcements: relaxed&happy, because I am one of the lucky ones 🫠 with PHAGE-PRO we will be exploiting prophages for phage therapy. Off to new grounds

We first show that the application of purified T4 phage across three mammalian cell lines led to rapid uptake and internalisation, but importantly, did not trigger a pro-inflammatory response.

This suggests that cells carefully traffick and process phage particles.
