Genomic analysis of Shewanella baltica strains from Baltic Sea sediments reveals that recombination-driven, or sexual, ...
How do bacteria adapt when resources run low? ISTA researchers have found that, under starvation stress, E. coli can use ...
New research shows bacteria form distinct species and maintain cohesion through frequent DNA exchange via homologous recombination. When Kostas Konstantinidis proved that many microbes -- like plants ...
A new review maps how bacterial anti-phage defenses, from restriction enzymes to Thoeris and CBASS immune signaling, shape ...
Bacterial restriction-modification systems are responsible for protecting cells from foreign genetic material, for example, bacteriophages and plasmids. Immune systems require strict regulation, as ...
