Cyanobacteria are key players in the food chain to support all other life forms.
New research uncovers unique genetic adaptations that facilitate cyanobacteria symbioses, expanding our understanding of their role in sustaining our ecosystems.

This is relatively new area for me, but adaption in biology never ceases to amaze and intrigue me. This article provides a short overview of the interplay between phages and their bacterial hosts.
If you think of phage-host dynamics as a game of chess, an important strategy consists of phage anti-defence systems (ADSs).
Find out how high-throughput approaches accelerate the discovery of ADSs to further our understanding of multi-drug resistance.

🦴Researchers used our @MGnifyDB microbiome data resource to discover enzymes that can upcycle animal bones into protein powder for human & animal consumption.
Such solutions are essential for feeding a growing population 🌍
