#HIRI researchers have identified a protein and a group of #sRNAs in B. thetaiotaomicron, which regulate sugar metabolism. These discoveries shed light on how this gut microbe adapts to varying nutritional conditions: https://www.helmholtz-hiri.de/en/newsroom/news/detail/news/novel-insights-into-the-metabolism-of-the-gut-microbiota/

The findings deepen our understanding of this bacterium's role in the human gut & may pave the way for new therapeutic strategies to promote health through the microbiota. The study was published in Nature Communications: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-55383-8

🚨 The Helmholtz Institute Würzburg is looking for a #postdoc to join the research group of Jens Hör. #HIRI's Hör lab focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of #RNA #phages during infection, host takeover and anti-phage defense. More information: https://www.helmholtz-hiri.de/en/jobs-talents/working-at-hiri/

Passionate about phages? 🤩 Apply by July 31 to join Jens Hör’s research group as a doctoral researcher! In #HIRI’s Hör lab, you will study how bacteria defend themselves against #RNA #phage infection and decipher the molecular mechanisms of this defense.

#HIRI researchers deployed #CRISPRi for the first time for the functional characterization of the gut mutualist Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. They identified an sRNA that modulates the microorganisms' growth in the presence of bile. The findings should contribute to a better understanding of the bacterium’s lifestyle in its native environment, the human intestine, and to the development of clinical applications. The study was published in @PNASNews: https://www.helmholtz-hiri.de/en/newsroom/news/detail/news/bacteroides-thetaiotaomicron-physiology-under-bile-stress/

The World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week (#WAAW) starts tomorrow, but at the #HIRI, the battle against #AntibioticResistance is a year-round task. 🦠 We are searching for new targets in various germs, as conventional antibiotics are becoming increasingly ineffective: https://www.helmholtz-hiri.de/en/newsroom/features-stories/the-silent-pandemic/

One promising solution are programmable antibiotics, ASOs, studied by the laboratory of HIRI Director Jörg Vogel. They target #mRNAs needed by bacteria to synthesize new proteins & replicate. 🧬
