This bacteria lurks in our food and on kitchen surfaces.

Through photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into energy-rich carbon compounds such as glucose. These compounds not only sustain the plant's own growth and ...

Research into cell cycle regulation and size control in microorganisms has yielded a nuanced understanding of how these entities maintain homeostasis and synchronise growth with division. In both ...

Researchers have discovered that a key bacterial protein, CsrA, gathers in a droplet-like structure inside cells to control when and how bacteria activate their disease-causing genes. This newly ...

Transmission electron micrograph demonstrating how the functional amyloid curli (purple) acts as a molecular suit of armor to defend E. coli (green) against the predatory bacterium Bdellovibrio ...
