It was carried on a tiny plasmid ~8,000 DNA letters long

That’s quite small

To our knowledge, the >2000 telomeres which were clustered into 137 groups is the first large scale attempt at dissecting the diversity of the telomeres of streptomyces, and allow us to make additional discoveries, like the potentially #plasmid specific AGA telomere.

The time has come for you to listen to the next session of the ISPB Virtual Seminar Series. Tuesday, October 14th, from 07:00–08:00 UTC.
Two new speakers, two great new stories.

To wrap up, we have synthesised our findings on 100 years ⌛️ of #plasmid evolution into a new model:
Whilst many families remain mostly stable, changing mainly via gene gain/loss and mutation, others break and fuse in a continual (birth/death) process ♻️🧬generating new diversity.

“Definitely my favorite moment of a maxiprep !” 😍

Inocles: Kuriose DNA-Moleküle in unserem Mund entdeckt Überraschung im Mund: Einige Mikroben in unserem Mund enthalten sogenannte Inocles – riesige, ringförmige DNA-Elemente, die außerhalb der Chromosomen vorliegen. Es ist der erste Nachweis solcher bakterieller Erbgutmoleküle in unserem Speichel. Sie könnten bei drei Viertel aller Menschen vorkommen, wie Forschende in „Nature Communications“ berichten. Die in den DNA-Ringen enthaltenen Gene geben den Mund-Mikroben offenbar einen Überlebensvorteil. Ob und wie sie unsere Gesundheit beeinflussen, ist jedoch noch unklar.
