Great heroic work by Kevser Bilici demonstrating the import role of biotin for integration of S. aureus into the nasal microbiome.

Really happy to see the final version of this published in

. We show that production of and competition for biotin shapes S. aureus fitness in the context of nasal commensals

Competitive fitness of Staphylococcus aureus against nasal commensals depends on biotin biosynthesis and acquisition
Abstract. The human nasal microbiome can serve as a reservoir for pathogens. In particular, the opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus can be a membe

I am happy to share our latest preprint, spearheaded by Laura Camus. We show that tyrosin-dependent interactions can foster integration of S. aureus into the nasal microbiome.

Matching phages to cognate host bacteria has remained merely empirical. We describe a new tool predicting the host range of

phages, based on phage receptor binding protein sequences, which will become helpful for
