Nature Immunology - Jack Strominger recounts his seminal work and contributions to understanding bacterial cell wall components, and thus how penicillin functions, and the implications of these ...

Protein complex in bacterial cell membrane acts like a rotary motor to recruit DNA-degrading enzymes to defend against phage ...

When speaking of motors, most people think of those powering vehicles and human machinery. However, biological motors have ...

Discover the importance of antibiotics, bacterial cell walls, and resistance mechanisms in fighting bacterial infections effectively.

Researchers use cryo-electron microscopy to reveal how sodium ions power bacterial flagellar motors, providing insights for ...

Bacteria are among the smallest living things. A single bacterium consists of just one cell. Not all bacteria are harmful. There are different unicellular organisms and types of bacteria.

Mechanisms of antibiotic resistance Bacteria employ a variety of strategies to modify a bacterial component or process so that antibiotics can no longer stop their growth or kill them. One means is to ...

Bacteria are among the smallest living things. A single bacterium consists of just one cell. Not all bacteria are harmful. There are different unicellular organisms and types of bacteria.

With the right components and nutrients, normal cells could soon be booted to form living life forms, such as bacteria. Similarly, with the right components and nutrients, mirror cells could be booted ...

The authors used a combination of spatial transcriptomics and multiplexed single-cell technologies ... DNA from bacteria, a key autoantigen in the autoimmune disease lupus, if these components ...
