Infectious disease outbreaks are on the rise worldwide. A new analysis finds human actions, from deforestation to climate change, are partly responsible.

Abstract. Toxin-antitoxin systems (TAs) are widespread in bacterial genomes. Yet, their integration, persistence, and impact in chromosome dynamics remain

The 16S rRNA gene has - and continues to - play an important role in microbiology. It’s universality across prokaryotes and variation across species has allowed the sequencing of its hypervariable reg...

Yet plenty of others might be, thanks to evolution.

The ability to manipulate and control microbial presence in built environments is imperative to research and medicine. The lack of documented evidence relating Bunsen burner use and airborne contamina...

Abstract. Insertion sequences (ISs) are widespread prokaryotic transposable elements, often regarded as genomic parasites that primarily cause deleterious

By sequencing the bacteria that cause the neglected disease yaws, researchers have found that while mass treatment can be successful, it can cause resistant strains to develop. They suggest that publi...
