A Kobe University team was able to edit the DNA of Lactobacillus strains directly without a template from other organisms.

Engineers have made bacteria to produce hyperspectral signals that can be detected as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of bacterial sensors for agricultural and other ...

Engineers and biologists at Dartmouth College have found that, just like word order affects meaning in a sentence, the ...

The findings were recently published in Nature Biotechnology. "We've long known that bacteria swap genes in ways that impact ...

Biotechnology is a broad discipline in which ... for the controlled expression of therapeutics in engineered oncolytic bacteria, demonstrating significant anti-tumor efficacy in multiple tumor ...

MIT scientists have found a clever new way to make bacteria send out signals that can be seen from far away—up to 90 meters.

Plants know how to defend themselves against pathogenic microorganisms. In turn, pathogens have sensors to detect such ...

For instance, some bacteria can only obtain nitrogen from inorganic ammonium sources while others do so from nitrogen-containing protein molecules. Advancements in industrial biotechnology and ...

Researchers have produced the most detailed image to date of a bacteriophage -- phage for short -- that has allowed them to see for the first time the structural makeup of the part of the phage that ...
