To model bacterial life, Thornburg and his colleagues turned to one of its simplest examples: a bacterial cell with a ...
Researchers from King's College London and the University of Surrey have developed a new technique to measure the content of ...
Key PointsBacteria actively sense their environment and use chemical cues to navigate their world through a process called chemotaxis.Chemotaxis aids ...
Are all bacterial cells in a group alike? It doesn't seem so. A population of bacterial cells may be heteroresistant, which is to say that some may be able to evade the effects of antibiotics, while ...
A bizarre bacteria has been discovered with an ability previously thought impossible for its kind. This strange discovery could shine a light on how some of our earliest single-celled ancestors formed ...
Scientists have engineered bacteria to produce designer proteins by smuggling artificial amino acids, enabling precise drug delivery and multifunctional applications.
Inside the gut of a caterpillar lives a worm, and inside the worm lurks a bioluminescent bacterium named Photorhabdus asymbiotica, which makes the caterpillar glow in the dark. But this ...
Researchers from King’s College London and the University of Surrey have developed a new technique to measure the content of individual human cells infected with bacteria that model tuberculosis – and ...
