Escherichia coli remains at the forefront of recombinant protein production, owing to its rapid growth, well-characterised genetics and the ease with which it can be genetically manipulated. The ...

Researchers have known that the bobtail squid recruits Vibrio fischeri from the ocean to provide bioluminescent camouflage, ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how bacteria share genes—including those that spread antibiotic resistance.

The cost-effective, easy-to-use T7 expression system has been integral to Escherichia coli protein production since its introduction in 1986. Now, a just-developed enhancement is making it even better ...

A single protein bolted to the inner membrane of a bacterial cell can shred a virus’s DNA before that genetic material ever ...

To enhance CAR T therapies, scientists are actively studying TCR signaling and T-cell exhaustion mechanisms to improve CAR T persistence and function. Additionally, there is a growing trend towards ...

Researchers have long known that glycosaminoglycan-binding proteins (HBPs) help control vital processes like cell growth, inflammation, and blood clotting. But a recent discovery has revealed a hidden ...

Tuberculosis is one of the world’s deadliest infectious diseases and now, a team of scientists has discovered a fundamental flaw in a long-standing model of how bacteria control gene expression that c ...

A research team has discovered a previously unknown mechanism by which the immune system fights bacterial infections. The ...

Every year, sepsis kills roughly 11 million people worldwide, more than lung cancer and heart attacks combined. Despite ...
