Antibiotic resistance is a significant and growing medical problem worldwide. Researchers at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) and collaborators have found a novel genetic arrangement that may ...

A major collaboration involving nine labs, led by scientists at Gladstone Institutes, has transferred a particularly useful ...

Antibiotics can destroy many types of bacteria, but increasingly, bacterial pathogens are gaining resistance to many commonly used types. As the threat of antibiotic resistance looms large, ...

The ability to precisely edit the genomes of bacteria has long been a goal of microbiologists. Such technology would enable ...

Birmingham scientists have identified an essential genetic code for a method called plasmid curing, which aims to "displace" antibiotic-resistance genes from bacteria. Plasmids, which are small, ...

The bacteria Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) can infect tissues in the mucosal layer that lines the stomach. H. pylori has unique characteristics allowing it to thrive in the acidic gastric ...

A protein plucked from common soil bacteria and paired with a fatty acid can destroy colorectal cancer cells in laboratory ...
