is a powerful technique that can measure membrane dynamics and identify changes with high accuracy and precision. We therefore combine ITIR-FCS with a segmentation algorithm to automatically identify ...

which leads to disruption of the outer cell membrane, leakage of intracellular contents and bacterial death. The most common mechanisms of resistance to colistin are modifications to ...

This membraneless compartment, resembling a droplet-like structure inside cells, acts as a temporary control center, regulating when and how bacteria activate their disease-causing genes.

Figure 1. Proposed mechanisms of antimicrobial peptide (AMP) action. AMPs target bacterial cells through various mechanisms, including disruption of the cell membrane and wall. These include (i) ...

There are many ways of classifying bacteria. One method is based on the cell membrane. In 1884, a bacteriologist named Christian Gram created a test that could determine if a bacterium had a thick ...

Now, researchers have developed a building material made of mycelium—the tubular, branching filaments found in most fungi—and bacteria cells. As detailed in a study published last week in the ...

Structural studies of membrane proteins historically have relied almost exclusively on first removing membrane proteins from the membrane with dispersive agents like detergents. But dispersive agents ...

Previous studies investigated this fluid antenna multiple access (FAMA) approach in a single-cell setup only. In this paper, we consider a cell-free network architecture in which users are associated ...

Our current aims in this project are to investigate the potency of BRICHOS to increase transport of biologic drugs against neurological diseases, for example anti-Aβ antibodies and lysosomal enzymes, ...
