The molecular structure of the motor component that powers the gliding apparatus of Mycoplasma mobile, one of the few mycoplasma bacteria that can move, has been revealed using cryo-electron ...
Researchers have identified a new way to fight infections like Lyme disease and syphilis by disrupting the bacteria’s ‘motor,’ preventing it from spreading through the body. The findings could have ...
Scientists from the University of Sheffield have discovered a new sensory capability in bacteria which could transform treatments for bacterial infections. It was previously thought that bacteria are ...
Scientists are studying how bacteria move across surfaces -- a process known as twitching motility. New findings led to the surprising discovery of the key role surface properties play in either ...
