A Dartmouth study finds that molecular hitchhikers living within bacteria can make their hosts extra resistant to medical ...
Active Genetics (Pro-AG) exploits a naturally created bacterial mating tunnel between cells to inactivate antibiotic resistance.
A novel CRISPR-based technology can spread within bacterial populations to eliminate antibiotic resistance.
A bacteria calledStaphylococcusaureusis widespread and generally harmless, but can cause infections known as "opportunistic infections". These occur when the bacteria take advantage of certain ...
Samples from hundreds of patients revealed that certain strains of the Lyme bacteria, Borrelia burgdorferi, have a protective outer layer that contains more of a type of protein that appears to ...
A research team is investigating how pathogens influence the immune response of their host with genetic variation. This enables Staphylococcus aureus bacteria to develop antibiotic resistance and ...
In a huge global study led by University of Cambridge researchers, a single group of bacteria—named CAG-170—has repeatedly ...
