Swapping a single amino acid in a simple bacterial protein changes its structure and function, revealing the effects of complex gene evolution, finds a new study. The study -- conducted using E. coli ...
The specific research of the Plummer-Medeiros lab focuses on how proteins in the membrane interact with lipids. This ...
Bacteria are also able to communicate with each other through chemical signals, a behavior known as quorum signaling (QS). These chemical signals spread through a biofilm that colonies of bacteria ...
Despite rapid advances in reading the genetic code of living organisms, scientists still face a major challenge today—knowing ...
Background and aims Aluminum is a major deleterious factor for soybean productivity in acidic soils. Soil enzyme activities and bacteria play important roles in improving the stress tolerance of ...
Vol. 395, No. 1/2, Part I: Special Issue Biochar and the Plant-Soil Interface (October 2015), pp. 415-427 (13 pages) Background and aims Peanut yield and quality are seriously compromised by ...
When proteins are exposed to stresses like a heat shock, they lose their native structure and form toxic insoluble aggregations. Bacterial molecular chaperone ClpB and its yeast homologue Hsp104 have ...
Acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections are associated with substantial morbidity and health care costs. Omadacycline, an aminomethylcycline antibiotic that can be administered once daily ...
Swapping a single amino acid in a simple bacterial protein changes its structure and function, revealing the effects of complex gene evolution, finds a new study published in the journal eLife. The ...
