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

Oxford Nanopore has reached a major regulatory milestone with the registration of its first In Vitro Diagnostic ("IVD") device in the UK and Europe: the GridION (TM) Dx.

A potato disease bacterium, ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’, spreads via potato psyllids. New research shows one type, ...

Nucleosomes are barriers to RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) transcribing along gene bodies in eukaryotes. We found that a fragile “tailless nucleosome” could be generated to resolve the Pol II pausing ...

In a new study, people who incorporated a fermented side dish into their weekly routine saw meaningful shifts in immune cells ...

Biologists mapping the human microbiome expected to find new bacteria and viruses, not entities that slip through every ...

Scientists have discovered a hidden RNA ‘switch’ used by bacteriophages to hijack bacterial cells, revealing a new layer of viral control that could help advance phage therapy and efforts to combat ...

With a new generation of fast and affordable gene sequencers, researchers are better equipped than ever to tackle Earth’s most pressing ecological challenges Sometimes, when the wind blows in the ...

The African CDC has recently warned of a surge in cholera cases across the continent. Cholera, caused by certain strains of V. cholerae, is a waterborne infection that spreads rapidly, particularly in ...

Researchers have sequenced the oldest RNA ever recovered, taken from a woolly mammoth frozen for nearly 40,000 years. The RNA reveals which genes were active in its tissues, offering a rare glimpse ...
