Mitochondria, the energy production centers of cells, and chloroplasts, the photosynthetic components of plant cells, were once free-living bacteria, but started living inside other cells millions of ...
Researchers at Durham have helped unlock a new understanding of how bacteria import antimicrobial peptides—the molecules that can kill or inhibit microbes. The research sheds new light on SbmA, a key ...
A system once tied to DNA organization in cyanobacteria has evolved into a structure that shapes the cell itself. This shift ...
Inside every human cell, a molecular machine quietly shreds damaged proteins to keep life running smoothly. Researchers have now shown that this same machine also forges tiny antibiotic fragments that ...
Scientists didn’t understand how bacteria divide up carbon sources into different paths for energy or to build new materials. Professor Ludmilla Aristilde; Professor Niall Mangan; Postdoctoral ...
