Researchers found that the DNA mutation pattern linked to colibactin was 3.3 times more common in early-onset cases, particularly among adults under the age of 40, compared to those diagnosed after ...

Antibiotic use in children may contribute to bacteria in the gut that produce the chemical.

Researchers develop hydrogel microspheres with data-encoding bacteria that enable room-temperature DNA storage with fluorescence-based retrieval, combining advantages of both in vivo and in vitro ...

Research now reveals how two of these fatty acids, propionate and butyrate, act as molecular messengers between our diet, gut bacteria, and the very packaging of our DNA. Microbial metabolism in our ...

Some DNA helicases play central and specific roles in genome maintenance and plasticity through their branch migration activity in different pathways of homologous recombination. RadA is a highly ...

Bacterial cells can "remember" brief, temporary changes to their bodies and immediate surroundings, a new Northwestern University and University of Texas-Southwestern study has found.

Bacteria engineered to destroy DNA can remove more than 99 per cent of genes that confer antibiotic resistance from wastewater.
