Chemotaxis is an adaptive mechanism that shapes the behavior of motile bacteria in habitats characterized by fluctuating and often conflicting cues environmental (e.g. stay-or-go). Chemotactic ...
Researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) have identified a mechanism in the gut bacterium ...
Bacterial chemotaxis signal transduction systems enable motile bacteria to navigate chemical gradients in their environments, directing movement towards attractants and away from repellents. Core ...
How do bacteria adapt when resources run low? ISTA researchers have found that, under starvation stress, E. coli can use bacteriophages and CRISPR-Cas ...
