This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...

Oribatid mites are tiny, soil-dwelling decomposers with over 10,000 species, some of which have defied the rules of evolution for millions of years. These mites, measuring between 150 and 1400 ...

Despite an alarming increase in morbidity and mortality caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria, the number of antibiotics available to efficiently combat them is dwindling. Consequently ...

For example ... "We were also able to demonstrate that horizontal gene transfer, a phenomenon that describes the incorporation of foreign genes from bacteria into the genome, is quite common ...

These symbiotic relationships provide clues as to how genetic material was exchanged between bacteria and beetles. Key findings highlight the role of horizontal gene transfer, the incorporation of ...

Gene-edited soil bacteria could provide third source of nitrogen for corn production. ScienceDaily . Retrieved February 7, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2025 / 01 / 250116161230.htm ...

Gene-edited soil bacteria can supply corn with up to 35 pounds of nitrogen per acre from the atmosphere during early growth, potentially reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers.

short DNA sequences that determine CRE activity—thus providing insights into how specific factors drive cell-type-specific gene expression. For example, the study identified HNF4 and GATA motifs ...
