Experimental evolution of measles virus reveals that a new phenotype emerges through cooperation between two different viral genomes in a single virion.
Cross-bands in the stalks ofCaulobacter crescentusare composed of at least four proteins and act as diffusion barriers for both soluble and membrane proteins.
A single T3SS effector protein fromS. Typhimurium can expand the narrow host range of S. Typhi by targeting the RAB32-dependent trafficking pathway, which controls the composition of the SCV.
Despite the revolutionary advances made through the application of omic approaches, the importance of studying organisms in pure culture should not be forgotten.
A combination of genetic, biochemical and structural approaches reveals how the nucleoid-associated protein MatP compacts theE. colichromosome using a bridging mechanism.
Rather than inhibiting bacterial growth by completely blocking protein synthesis, macrolide antibiotics permit the translation of a distinct subset of proteins, and this could be even more detrimental to the bacterial cell.
