I am happy to share our latest preprint, spearheaded by Laura Camus. We show that tyrosin-dependent interactions can foster integration of S. aureus into the nasal microbiome. @cmfi.bsky.social @lmumuenchen.bsky.social

Matching phages to cognate host bacteria has remained merely empirical. We describe a new tool predicting the host range of #S.aureus-specific phages, based on phage receptor binding protein sequences, which will become helpful for #phage-therapy.

Bacteriophages are crucial in bacterial communities and can be used for therapy of multidrug-resistant pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus. Howeve…

We derive iron-siderophore interaction networks among Pseudomonas strains from sequencing data. One key insight: natural strains form dense networks, whereas pathogens are loners. With @frimanscience.bsky.social @zhiyuanli.bsky.social & Nanjing colleagues

Siderophore synthetase-receptor gene coevolution reveals habitat- and pathogen-specific bacterial iron interaction networks
Coevolving siderophore genes shape bacterial iron networks, unveiling the complexity of cheating across habitats and lifestyles.
