Using ribosome engineering (RE), researchers from Shinshu University introduced mutations affecting the protein synthesis ...

The protein called intelectin-2 plays another important role by reinforcing the protective mucus layer that lines the ...

The mucosal surfaces that line the body are embedded with defensive molecules that help keep microbes from causing ...

By combining Transformer-based sequence modeling with a novel conditional probability strategy, the approach overcomes ...

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 ...

What if bacteria held the keys to a part of our own immunity? For several years, some scientists have been exploring unexpected links between human proteins involved in the body's defense and certain ...

The current study explored how macronutrients in the host diet are involved in gut colonization and competition by V.

Living bacteria embedded in silicone can absorb green LED light and re-emit it as red, offering a potential sustainable alternative to rare-earth phosphors in lighting.

Attachment of a bacterial protein to the tips of phage tails produces non-infectious, tailless phages. “Many of these bacterial systems have been shown to be the evolutionary origin of different human ...
