Bacterial gene regulation is a finely tuned process essential for cellular adaptation and survival. Central to this regulation are nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs), which not only compact the ...
Bacterial chromosome dynamics and gene regulation are intimately linked through a finely orchestrated interplay between the physical organization of the chromosome and the molecular processes that ...
Scientists studying thousands of rats discovered that gut bacteria are shaped by both personal genetics and the genetics of social partners. Some genes promote certain microbes that can spread between ...
The cartoon illustrates how single-cell transcriptomics works: all mRNA molecules are recorded and characterized from countless bacterial cells, which are shown here in survival size on a conveyor ...
Despite rapid advances in reading the genetic code of living organisms, scientists still face a major challenge today—knowing a gene's sequence does not automatically reveal what it does. Even in ...
A new study finds that bacteria can actively block the transfer of beneficial genes to neighboring cells, using specialized proteins to specifically destroy shared DNA before it spreads. This ...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pathogenic bacteria is a major global public health threat. While the inappropriate use of antibiotics is widely ...
Antibiotic resistance (AR) has steadily accelerated in recent years to become a global health crisis. As deadly bacteria evolve new ways to elude drug treatments for a variety of illnesses, a growing ...
Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...
A research team at the University of Würzburg has, for the first time, uncovered how E. coli bacteria sneak into the prostate. The study opens the door to potential new treatments for bacterial ...
Analysing the gene activity of every single bacterial cell in a colony? A new technique of single-cell transcriptomics developed in W rzburg can do this much more efficiently than other methods: It ...
