Researchers led by Imperial College London have uncovered new insights into how bacteria hook up to exchange DNA that helps them resist antibiotics. Understanding the molecular basis of bacterial ...

We have some tools to control bacteria, like antibiotics, but antibiotic resistance is a growing problem that is a threat to public health... | Microbiology ...

The ever-diverse fungi play several key roles in our day–to–day life. From facilitating ecological nutrient cycling, to being used in industrial manufacturing and being a key ingredient in our food, ...

Bacterial resistance is one of the biggest looming health threats for modern medicine, but new research by a transatlantic team of researchers has offered a better understanding of how this resistance ...

Researchers have uncovered new details about how bacteria hook up to exchange DNA that helps them resist antibiotics. One of the primary ways harmful bacteria acquire resistance to antibiotics is by ...

Conjugation has classically been considered a bacterium-to-bacterium DNA transfer driven by the donor cell and is typically plasmid-encoded. Theoretically it is possible that any type of cell can ...

In a recent study published in the iScience journal, researchers assessed the efficiency of immunization with a bacterial peptide conjugated to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ...

Attachment of a bacterial protein to the tips of phage tails produces non-infectious, tailless phages. “Many of these bacterial systems have been shown to be the evolutionary origin of different human ...

In the Herman Lab, we set out to exploit the speed and power of bacterial genetics to understand the interactions between transcription, core transcription factors, and genome maintenance.
