Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 93, No. 25 (Dec. 10, 1996), pp. 14648-14653 (6 pages) cagA, a gene that codes for an immunodominant antigen, is ...
Small RNA (sRNA) genes are expressed in all organisms, primarily as regulators of translation and message stability. We have developed comparative genomic approaches to identify sRNAs that are ...
A huge tool-kit of genes allows a rogue form of a normally harmless gut bacterium to cause life-threatening infections. The finding could lead to new ways to predict, prevent or treat these infections ...
Genomic 'islands' that evolved from viruses can be converted into 'drones' that disable Staphylococcus aureus, bacteria that are often resistant to antibiotics, a new study finds. Genomic "islands" ...
Drones have been hyped by Amazon as the future of package delivery, but nanoscale drones called genomic islands have been shuttling genetic packages between bacteria for a long, long time.
