A drug-resistant type of bacteria that has adapted to health care settings evolved in the past several years to weaponize an antimicrobial genetic tool, eliminating its cousins and replacing them as ...
Now an interdisciplinary group of researchers at Rice University has developed an innovative RNA "barcoding" method to track these genetic exchanges in microbial communities, providing new insights ...
Acurx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Acurx" or the "Company"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of antibiotics for difficult-to-treat bacterial infections, announced today ...
While no overall associations emerged between oral microbial characteristics and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, researchers ...
Antibiotic resistance is a global concern that threatens our ability to prevent and treat bacterial infections in humans and animals. To better monitor the emergence and spread of resistance, ...
Abstract Genome-wide identification of binding profiles for DNA-binding proteins from the limited number of intracellular pathogens in infection ...
The University of Melbourne’s Dr Adrianna Turner, a Research Officer at the Doherty Institute and first author of the study, said rifaximin triggers specific changes in an enzyme called RNA Polymerase ...
Of the six classes of bacterial TA systems characterized to date, the toxin component is always a protein. Type I and Type III TA systems are unique in that the antitoxin in these systems is an RNA ...
Amplicon deep-sequencing of the RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) revealed diverse and highly uneven communities of picorna-like viruses in the coastal waters of British Columbia (BC), Canada.
Wu, J.J. and Liang, G.H. (2025) Progress in Diagnosis and Treatment of Fungal Keratitiss. Journal of Biosciences and Medicines, 13, 138-146. doi: 10.4236/jbm.2025.133011 .
Bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) has emerged as a crucial target for antibiotic development due to its essential role in transcription. RNAP is a molecular motor, and its function relies heavily on the ...
