When Kostas Konstantinidis proved that many bacteria—like plants and animals—are organized into species, he upended a long-held scientific belief. Scientists widely believed that bacteria, due to ...

"It appears that RapA and Rho work as complementary -- not redundant -- safeguards for genome stability when E. coli are subject to high-salt stress." The implications could be vast. Darst ...

Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and ...

We investigate this problem using synthetic cross-feeding interactions: by simply deleting two metabolic genes from the genome of Escherichia coli, we generated genotypes that require amino acids ...

E. coli, or Escherichia coli, is a type of bacteria commonly found in the environment, foods, and intestines of people and animals. While most strains are harmless and part of our normal ...

studied Escherichia coli, or E. coli, a simple model organism, to map how metabolites—small molecules essential for life—interact with key proteins such as enzymes and transcription factors.

LBP-EC01 is a bacteriophage ‘cocktail’ that has been modified using CRISPR/Cas3 gene-editing to improve its ability to target the E coli genome. Lab studies have demonstrated it is ...

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), including carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli, pose a major risk to patients and healthcare systems in the ...
