GENETICS-2026 Conference
The GENETICS 2026 conference is currently underway, and my colleague Anna Trofimova is presenting a poster on the CRISPR-Cas system of our Lalka phages!

Meanwhile, we have carried out a more thorough analysis of this CRISPR-Cas system’s PAM requirements using a plasmid library depletion assay, and the poster already includes the new data. It’s great to see that this method works in our hands—a small but satisfying win.
