During his post-doctoral studies, he worked on research studying how bacteria defend themselves against phages, which are viruses that infect and replicate only in bacterial cells and are the most ...

In new research published this week, a team led by Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) scientists reveals that symbiotic bacteria often accompany single-celled protists in the ocean’s upper layer ...

An E. coli cell, for example, measures about two microns, or under a ten-thousandth of an inch. Each bacterial cell is its own organism, meaning that it can grow and split into a pair of new bacteria.

Long ago, bacteria entered other cells and stayed. ... For the host, it is an opportunity to acquire new characteristics in one swoop by incorporating another organism, ...

An important part of T4SS is the enzyme PrgK, which breaks down the bacterial cell wall and thus facilitates the transfer of properties between bacteria. This enzyme has three parts or domains ...
