A newly discovered promoter element "start" points to a shared regulatory syntax for controlling transcription initiation in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. DNA is often described as the language ...

Plant roots release a wide array of metabolites into the rhizosphere, shaping microbial communities and their functions. While metagenomics has expanded our understanding of these communities, little ...

Microbial secretion systems are at the core of bacterial physiology, facilitating processes such as protein export, ...

Increasing levels of antimicrobial resistance in opportunistic bacterial pathogens are one of the greatest threats to public health in the twenty-first century, with obvious associated clinical and ...

Bacterial transcription is a production line of copying over genetic instructions from double stranded DNA to produce RNA, which is then used for the subsequent production of proteins that the ...
