A mathematical model provides new insights into the distribution of genetic information during bacterial cell division The precise segregation of DNA and the faithful inheritance of plasmids are ...
MIT chemists have discovered the structure of a protein that can pump toxic molecules out of bacterial cells. Proteins similar to this one, which is found in E. coli, are believed to help bacteria ...
Limnology and Oceanography, Vol. 56, No. 1 (2011), pp. 37-48 (12 pages) Flow cytometric determinations of membrane integrity, nucleic acid content, and respiratory activity were combined with dilution ...
We showed that Ziapin2 causes special channels to open, causing electrical changes in bacterial cells. "Though in its early stages, this technique may help us in the future to better understand ...
Scientists have identified a protein that can stop an infection in its tracks by simply dissolving a bacterial pathogen's cell membrane. This work indicates that there are natural detergents that ...
Sequencing the genome of single bacterial cells has long been technically difficult due to the seemingly incorrigible bias in the gene amplification stage of the process, making it hard to produce ...
Lucy Shapiro received this year’s Lasker Special Achievement Award for her discovery of how bacteria use genetic circuits to encode three-dimensional cellular life. “I was quite shocked, truly,” said ...
E. coli is the field's main "workhorse" says Prof Wallace, who has also genetically engineered it in the lab to turn plastic ...
