Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have shown that bacteria can learn from past experiences, store memories across ...

Bacterial proliferation relies upon an exquisitely coordinated series of events that culminate in cell division and the remodelling of the peptidoglycan sacculus. Division begins with assembly of the ...

One of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet is closer than you think - right inside your mouth. Your mouth is a thriving ecosystem of more than 500 different species of bacteria living in ...

A research team led by Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) researcher David Reverter has discovered the molecular mechanism that describes in detail the process regulating cell division in ...

A previously unknown mechanism of active matter self-organization essential for bacterial cell division follows the motto 'dying to align': Misaligned filaments 'die' spontaneously to form a ring ...

In 1965, Barnett Rosenberg accidentally discovered cisplatin while studying E.coli bacteria. He observed that platinum ...

Bacterial cell division, a process wherein a single cell divides to form two identical daughter cells, represents one of the most essential biological processes. Understanding the precise mechanism ...

The filamentous bacterium Corynebacterium matruchotii splitting into multiple cells at once, a rare kind of cell division called multiple fission. C. matruchotii is one of the most common bacteria ...

Learn how fog bacteria may grow inside tiny droplets, break down formaldehyde, and change how researchers think about the air ...

Among the more than 500 species of bacteria that thrive in the human mouth, one seems to play by its own rules. This video shows one Corynebacterium matruchotii bacterium dividing into many daughter ...
