For MyD88 lovers... Out today! The first article out of Elba del Val's superb PhD thesis at @unicomplutense. A small step for one woman, a big step for our research on yeast-based SynBio models to understand human innate immune signaling pathways! link.springer.com/10.1007/s0…

MyD88 polymerization and association to cellular membranes in a yeast heterologous model

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences - MyD88 is a key mediator of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling, orchestrating the innate immune response upon stimulation by pathogen-associated molecular...

🚨🚨New paper out!!! Come for the first large-scale analysis of plasmid copy number across species, stay for one of the most intriguing results of my lab: universal scaling laws in plasmid biology! 📈🧬 👉nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Universal rules govern plasmid copy number

Nature Communications - Plasmids exhibit a broad range of sizes and copies per cell, and these two parameters appear to be negatively correlated. Here, Ramiro-Martínez et al. analyse the copy...

Today, a decision to increase ERC support for researchers moving to Europe was adopted. On top of normal grants, the ERC offers 'start-up' funding to help PIs establish laboratories/research teams in Europe. This extra is now x2 (up to €2 million!) europa.eu/!6Vdgmp

With a bit of a lag for X... 🧪 Finally out after peer review, our work showing that "Mobile #Integrons carry Phage Defense Systems" is now published in Science 🎉 Short 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Mobile integrons encode phage defense systems

Integrons are bacterial genetic elements that capture, stockpile, and modulate the expression of genes encoded in integron cassettes. Mobile integrons (MIs) are borne on plasmids, acting as a vehicle...

This amazing work (and that from Landon Getz in @theMaxwellLab nature.com/articles/s41564-0…) closes the circle and proves the critical role of integrons in bacterial defense. Enjoy the reading!!
