  1. Thrilled to see our work featured on the cover of Molecular Cell.

    The image: an electron micrograph of an i-loop, the DNA structure we propose as a source of eccDNA formation. Almost like catching circular DNA formation in the act.

  2. Bacteria possess unique traits with great potential for benefiting society. However, current genetic engineering methods to harness them are limited to a small fraction of bacteria. A team led by #HIRI has introduced an approach that can make more bacteria amenable to genetic engineering. The method, called IMPRINT, uses cell-free systems to enhance #DNA transformation across various bacterial strains. 🦠🧬 The findings were published in #MolecularCell: helmholtz-hiri.de/en/newsroom/

  3. Listen up, #CRISPR Fan(zor)atics! ✂️🧬 In a new #MolecularCell spotlight, Costas Patinios, a postdoc in #HIRI’s Beisel lab, recaps Feng Zhang's recent remarkable discovery describing eukaryotic #RNA-guided DNA endonucleases, called Fanzors. Read more here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1hjJC_O
