Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have solved a 60-year-old mystery in bacterial cell envelope ...

Scientists have demonstrated that select human gut bacteria can bioaccumulate and sequester PFAS ‘forever chemicals’, ...

However, Gram-negative bacteria are distinguished from other forms of bacteria because they are protected by a second outer membrane.

We demonstrate that saccharin can inhibit the growth of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as disrupt key phenotypes linked to host colonisation, such as motility and biofilm ...

However, clinical studies so far have largely focused on using peptidoglycan hydrolases against Gram-positive bacteria, in which peptidoglycans are directly exposed to the environment. In ...

Antibiotic resistance is a major challenge in modern medicine. The unique double membrane structure of Gram-negative bacteria limits the efficacy of many existing antibiotics and adds complexity to ...

Multiple investigations have conclusively shown that Gram-positive bacterial YidC has Sec-independent insertion mechanisms. Through the use of microsecond-level all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) ...

In what they labeled a "surprising" finding, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers studying bacteria from freshwater lakes and soil say they have determined a protein's essential role in maintaining the ...

Most species of bacteria can be broadly divided into two groups, known as gram-positive and gram-negative. These categories ...
