Traditionally, bacteria and particularly pathogens are classified as extracellular that thrive independently of a host cell, obligate intracellular bacteria that require a host cell to develop within ...

Magnetotactic bacteria provide one example of such intracellular deposits. They synthesize intracellular magnetic minerals of magnetite (Fe3O4) and/or greigite (Fe3S4) magnetosomes which are generally ...

Immunity to intracellular bacteria including Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mycobacterium leprae, and Listeria monocytogenes depends on specific T cells. Evidence to be described suggests that CD4 (alpha ...

Traditional antibiotics drive bacteria toward drug resistance, so scientists are looking to viruses, CRISPR, designer molecules and protein swords for better treatments. When you purchase through ...

A team of scientists found that the ancestor of chlamydiae likely already lived inside host cells, but that chlamydiae infecting amoeba evolved later in ways unexpected for intracellular bacteria.

The research team shows for the first time that intracellular bacteria known as symbionts protect their host against viruses. Amoebae are protists, i.e. single-celled microorganisms with a cell ...

Researchers at UC Davis have discovered a signaling mechanism that allows bacteria like Salmonella to evade destruction by the host’s immune system. Intracellular bacteria like Salmonella can infect ...
