Recalcitrant infections are often caused by dormant bacteria, including persisters and viable but nonculturable cells. Here, the authors explore how composition and structure of protein ...

Early on in the research, the scientists discovered that it was the bacterial flagella – part of the cell that aids in movement – that enables the bacteria to invade cancer cells. So they engineered a ...

Researchers at the University of Waterloo say they've made a breakthrough in introducing a new trait into bacteria found in wastewater, giving them the ability to break down microplastics.

To address this problem, an increasing number of researchers and medical professionals are working to develop new ways to treat cancer. Bacteria have chemotaxis that can target and colonize tumor ...
