An underwater drone with long, spinning arms like the flagella of bacteria could survey the seas without endangering marine life, its creators claim ...

The study shows that in liquid environments, where bacteria rely on movement to navigate, the rotation of flagella acts as a mechanical signal that turns on a set of genes required for DNA transfer.

Proteins form the structural and functional backbone of the cell, and any perturbation in their synthesis can disrupt normal ...

"Until now, there was no way to observe the internal structure of the cochlea non-destructively with high resolution,” said Serita. “A key innovation in our work was the use of a nonlinear ...

A recent experiment using the U.S. Department of Energy’s Jefferson Lab has revealed the inner structure of the neutron in ways never seen before. This milestone gives scientists a new tool to ...

In the microscopic battlefield of plant-microbe interactions, plants are constantly fighting off invading bacteria. New research reveals just how clever these bacterial invaders can be.

Ben-Yehuda. "What we found is that in liquid, it's the rotation of the flagella that acts as a mechanical signal to kickstart this process." The study focused on pLS20, a widely distributed ...
