"Belt and braces: Two escape ways to maintain the cassette reservoir of large chromosomal integrons" Read the study: plos.io/3UVWGbY.
Recently published from researchers at @UBC and @OISTedu: "Genomic analyses of Symbiomonas scintillans show no evidence for endosymbiotic bacteria but does reveal the presence of giant viruses" 🔎 plos.io/4am5Q66.
Recently published from researchers at @UBC and @UniKent:"The actin binding sites of talin have both distinct and complementary roles in cell-ECM adhesion" 🔎 plos.io/44F2gTg.
In this recent study, researchers discuss a small-molecule approach to restore female sterility phenotype targeted by a homing suppression gene drive in the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii plos.io/3WFEKUd.
Researchers from @Cornell and @umeauniversity share data that reveals a more complex role of DacA1 in maintaining PG homeostasis than previously assumed. 📖 Read the study: plos.io/4bzaIFW 📈 See the data: plos.io/4bzG2o3
