This research could represent the first documented case of paracetamol production from plastic waste using E. coli bacteria.

A team of researchers including Gavin King is challenging prior theories about how material leaves the inside of an E.coli cell. This discovery could have important implications for how we treat ...

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) induce gross cytoskeletal rearrangement within epithelial cells, immediately beneath the attached bacterium. The C-terminal 280 amino acid residues of ...

Proteins form the structural and functional backbone of the cell, and any perturbation in their synthesis can disrupt normal cellular functions. The DNA blueprint is carefully read, transcribed ...

This type of E. coli is also known to drive microvilli elongation, by the action of a protein called Map that manipulates structural proteins within intestinal epithelial cells during an infection.

The newly created protein, termed "de novo-1", binds to a heme-related target in E. coli<i/>, preventing the bacteria from ...

Running ‘Doom’ on E. coli cells… very, very slowly It would take nearly 600 years to finish playing this MIT student's iteration of the classic video game. Andrew Paul Feb 1, 2024 9:00 AM EST ...

An E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald's Quarter Pounders has caused illnesses across 10 states. What to know about the bacteria.

The formation of persisters is an important feature of bacteria like Escherichia coli (E. coli). These noxious cells, being able to go dormant, are highly resistant to antimicrobial treatments and ...

An MIT biotechnology student has gotten "Doom" to run on a cell array full of gut bacteria, proving that it really does run on everything.

An E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald's Quarter Pounders has caused illnesses across 10 states. What to know about the bacteria.
