Space-evolved viruses show enhanced killing power against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, offering new pathways for phage ...

Scientists have infected bacteria with a virus aboard the International Space Station to see how they would interact in ...

The researchers took a “safety-first” approach. They deliberately excluded all viruses that infect humans or animals from the ...

The genetic culprits responsible for the spread of multidrug resistance (MDR) in bacteria have been identified by new research mapping 100 years of bacterial evolution. Subscribe to our newsletter for ...

Far from Earth's gravitational pull, a simple viral infection took on a new evolutionary direction. A study conducted aboard the ISS found that when bacteria and ...

New study shows how bacteria adapted a virus-derived injection system to recognize and attach to many different types of cells. By systematically ...

The genetic culprits responsible for the spread of multidrug resistance (MDR) in bacteria have been identified by new research mapping 100 years of bacterial evolution. Experts at the Wellcome Sanger ...

Unlike most bacteria, Caulobacterales bacteria divide asymmetrically when they reproduce, which creates two cells that look different from each other (top part of the illustration). However, the ...
