🚨Preprint alert - this is a big one! We transfer the revolutionary power of TnSeq to bacteriophages.

Our HIDEN-SEQ links the "dark matter" genes of your favorite phage to any selectable phenotype, guiding the path from fun observations to molecular mechanisms.

The type VI secretion system and associated effector proteins Nature Reviews Microbiology, Published online: 14 November 2025; doi:10.1038/s41579-025-01256-wIn this Review, Basler and colleagues examine the type VI secretion system (T6SS), focusing on the diversity of antibacterial T6SS effectors and the evolutionary forces that shape them. They explain how effectors diversify and highlight interbacterial antagonism as a key driver of this process.

A proper pull-down experiment figure must have at least 3 lanes: the interaction in question and 2 controls, one for each protein. Please stop publishing (and approving as reviewers) pull-downs with 2 lanes.
