However, these are not the only ways that bacteria can respond under stress. Bacteria can change the order of genes on their chromosome (the chromosome structure) and/or the three-dimensional ...

Led by a team from Brunel University in the UK, the researchers behind the study ran controlled lab tests to see how saccharin, a common artificial sweetener, interacted with bacteria. We know the ...

Are genes distributed randomly along the bacterial chromosome, as if scattered from a salt shaker? This opinion, which is held by a majority of researchers, has now been disputed by a team of ...

A long search beyond the realm of microbes N4-methylcytosine (4mC) is a form of immunity in bacteria, camouflaging their genome from enzymes that degrade foreign sequences by adding a methyl ...

Engineered bacteria secrete powerful nanoparticles to aid in drug delivery, vaccines and treating medical conditions, such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease. (Nanowerk News) Researchers led by the ...

For example, the evolution of much smaller but fully functional centromeres (involved in controlling cell division) in bonobos may offer ideas for engineering streamlined artificial chromosomes to ...

They appear to play a major role in genetic variation among apes, including dramatic restructuring of large portions of the chromosomes. Segmental duplications are enriched in the short arms of ...

AI’s rapid development raises concerns over its ethical implications and environmental footprint. Artificial intelligence is transforming our lives, reshaping sectors such as education, healthcare, ...

Scientists have been trying to create multicellular life from a fully human-made genome since 2006 International teams have painstakingly built 16 synthetic yeast chromosomes from scratch Sydney ...

Saccharin is the market leader among artificial ... near the chromosome origin. Saccharin treatment resulted in a loss of cell morphology and filamentation in E. coli. Bacterial cells filament ...
