Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...
In what they labeled a "surprising" finding, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers studying bacteria from freshwater lakes and soil say they have determined a protein's essential role in maintaining the ...
Bacterial pathogenesis research has traditionally centered on canonical metabolic and virulence pathways, yet a critical facet of microbial survival and ...

The secret life of cell walls
From plant stems to bacterial shells, cell walls are far more than rigid barriers—they’re living, adapting structures. Scientists are uncovering how they maintain shape, remodel themselves, and even ...
Most bacteria, including many bacterial pathogens, are surrounded by an outer protective layer of sugar molecules, known as a capsule. This primarily protects the bacteria from environmental ...
An international team led by Durham researchers has mapped how the bacterial transporter protein SbmA shuttles antimicrobial peptides across cell membranes. Using advanced structural techniques, they ...
