“After about a decade of looking at the bacterial cell wall with AFM, I managed to image individual molecular sugar chains,” Turner stated on Twitter. Lead author Robert Turner achieved a breakthrough ...

The bacterial cell wall that is the target of potent antibiotics such as penicillin is actually made up of a ... These pictures are 3-D images to molecular resolution--you can actually start to ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield have produced the first high-resolution images of the structure of the cell wall of bacteria, in a study that could further understanding of antimicrobial ...

Scientists have produced the first high-resolution images of the structure of the cell wall of bacteria, ... The architecture of the Gram-positive bacterial cell wall. Nature, 2020; DOI: 10.1038 ...

The figure illustrates bacterial cell wall synthesis as mediated by an enzyme called MraY (yellow/green). The enzyme modifies the cell wall building blocks (bricks) with a carrier lipid (cyan) so ...

ASU professor Glen D’Souza joined The Show to speak more about what he’s discovered about these bacteria: Not only will ...

Cell wall synthesis plays a key role in bacterial growth: the cell division protein FtsZ forms the so-called Z-ring in the center of the cell, thus initiating the division process.

Recent findings published in Nature Communications explain how we might soon wield new weaponry against bacterial walls. Image Credit British Library and Wikimedia, no known copyright restrictions, ...

Researchers from Umeå University, Sweden, and Cornell University, U.S., have discovered a widespread mechanism in bacteria that enhances the bacteria's defense against environmental threats.
