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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

It can be difficult to differentiate pink eye symptoms from dry eye symptoms because they both involve red, swollen eyes. Telling them apart often comes down to recognizing specific signs, such as ...

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 ...

1). The karyotype analysis showed a balanced translocation between the long arm of X chromosome and the short arm of chromosome 16 described as 46,X,t(X;16)(q13.3;p11.2). At 11 mo, she developed ...

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 ...

Researchers have discovered the artificial sweetener can kill multidrug-resistant bacteria — offering a surprising new tool in the global fight against antibiotic resistance. Antibiotic ...

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 ...
