We discovered a new immune signaling molecule: N7-cADPR N7-cADPR is produced by phage-stimulated TIR proteins. It activates a bacterial caspase, which then degrades essential proteins to curb infection Preprint: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… Congrats @FrancoisRousset & @IlyaOsterman

We are going viral! Our public outreach project “Going viral 2024” started today! During the next days school kids are learning how to isolate phages from their own soil samples! @dfg_public @fz_juelich @iamphaged @cg_bbr97 @FrunzkeLab
