Danica Schmidtke (Stanford University) and colleagues published a new preprint on how the prototypic crAssphage demonstrates a phage-plasmid lifestyle, persisting extrachromosomally without integrating into the host’s chromosome.

This week's EMDB (Electron Microscopy Data Bank) release includes this beautiful 4.4 Å single particle CryoEM structure of a phicrAss001 virion!
