Biologists from ETH Zurich have discovered speargun- like molecular injection systems in two types of bacteria and have described their structure for the first time. The special nanomachines are used ...
Researchers have uncovered the structure of a regulatory mechanism unique to bacteria, opening the door for designing new antibiotics targeted to pathogens. Cornell researchers have uncovered the ...
The surface of pathogenic bacteria like E. coli contains hair-like structures called pili, which help bacteria bind to a host cell and stimulate infection. Researchers identified a new stage of pilus ...
Swapping a single amino acid in a simple bacterial protein changes its structure and function, revealing the effects of complex gene evolution, finds a new study. The study -- conducted using E. coli ...
Bacteria in the human gut can directly deliver proteins into human cells, actively shaping immune responses. A consortium led ...
