Urinary catheterization, a frequent procedure in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities, is a primary driver of nosocomial infec...

This study presents a pooled CRISPRi screening approach in Candida albicans to investigate essential genes at scale, revealing environment- and strain-dependent gene sensitivities and conserved vulner...

Urinary catheterization, a common procedure in hospitals and nursing home facilities, is a primary driver of hospital-acquired infections (HAI). These devices frequently lead to catheter-associated ur...

Plasmids are a ubiquitous feature of bacterial genomes, but the evolutionary forces driving genes to become associated with plasmids are poorly understood. To address this problem, we compared the fit...

It is widely believed that due to nutrient limitations in natural environments, bacteria spend most of their life in non-growing states. However, very little is known about how bacteria change their p...

In this article I review mechanisms that underpin epigenetic inheritance of CpG methylation and histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me) in chromatin in fungi and mammals. CpG methylation can be faith...
