Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ ...
Viruses attack nearly every living organism on Earth. To do so, they rely on highly specialized proteins that recognize and bind to receptors on the surface of target cells, a molecular arms race that ...
Researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed that cells use a previously unknown feat of molecular craftsmanship ...
New research has uncovered an extraordinary mechanism of cell division in Corynebacterium matruchotii, one of the most common bacteria living in dental plaque. The filamentous bacterium doesn't just ...
The filamentous bacterium Corynebacterium matruchotii splitting into multiple cells at once, a rare kind of cell division called multiple fission. C. matruchotii is one of the most common bacteria ...
