It was a privilege to speak to SITC today about research, innovation and translation in microbiome science in the UK, both now and aspirations for the future. This has been very much a team effort to get to this point so thanks to all involved! @uofglasgow.bsky.social @uofgmvls.bsky.social

New mechanism of gene transfer! With @tcostalab.bsky.social @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social, we discovered that cf-PICIs form tail-less elements that, once released, spread among different bacterial species by hijacking tails from various phages. More exciting news soon! shorturl.at/kRJqE

Chimeric infective particles expand species boundaries in phage inducible chromosomal island mobilization
Some mobile genetic elements spread among unrelated bacterial species through unknown mechanisms. Recently, we discovered that identical capsid-forming phage-inducible chromosomal islands (cf-PICIs), ...
