New research shows that 'hacking' the communication channels between microbes in the mouth could boost levels of beneficial ...

这项最新研究揭开了谜底。研究团队发现，AvrBs2蛋白并非传统认知中的破坏分子，而是一位巧妙的“厨师”。当细菌感染植物时，它会通过特定的分泌系统将AvrBs2蛋白“注射”到植物细胞内。 在植物细胞内部，AvrBs2利用植物体内的尿苷二磷酸-α-D-半乳糖（合成细胞壁的一种原料），催化合成一种全新的化合物。研究人员将其命名为黄原聚糖。这可以说是细菌利用植物原料定制的 “一份外卖” 。

A new study reveals that bacteria can survive antibiotic treatment through two fundamentally different "shutdown modes," not ...

Analysis of hundreds of single-cell genomes from Yellowstone National Park shows bacterial species are less cohesive than previously thought.

Pneumonia is an infection of one or both lungs which affects alveoli, the tiny sacs found in clusters at the end of the branching structure of airways (respiratory tree) that supply air to the lungs.

Bacterial vaginosis, commonly known as BV, is the most common vaginal infection. Nearly 30% of women in the U.S. will experience bacterial vaginosis at some point in their lifetime. Bacterial ...
