A neural network analyzes an extensive gut microbiome dataset to uncover insights into human health. Gut bacteria play an ...

Harmful algal blooms are not all the same. That's true even of the blooms within northwest Ohio, where researchers have long known that the strain of cyanobacteria that typically dominates blooms in ...

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

Descriptive analysis was used to characterize multi-drug-resistant gram-negative Bacteria isolated from outpatient. A total of 441 Gram-negative isolates clinical samples were analyzed, of which 342 ...

In an era of escalating antibiotic resistance, there is a pressing need for innovative strategies to develop novel antibiotics. Gram-negative bacteria, characterized by their robust dual-membrane, are ...

Researchers discovered lariocidin, a lasso peptide antibiotic that kills multidrug-resistant bacteria by binding a novel ribosomal site.

In it, the researchers describe how an imbalance in the three-part protein complex — MacAB-TolC—helps gram-negative bacteria resist antibiotics. The MacAB-TolC complex, known as a multidrug ...

A team led by Paul Hergenrother at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has discovered a new antibiotic that exclusively targets gram-negative bacteria and avoids wiping out the ecosystem ...

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) ...

Differences between gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria All bacteria have a cell wall composed of mesh-like strands of a big molecule called peptidoglycan, which surrounds the cell membrane.
