Researchers have identified a bacterial protein, YokF, that prevents the transfer of plasmids—many carrying antibiotic resistance genes—between cells by degrading DNA during nanotube transfer. The ...
A new study finds that bacteria can actively block the transfer of beneficial genes to neighboring cells, using specialized ...
The study, recently published in Nature Microbiology, reveals how certain bacteria prevent the transfer of genetic material ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how bacteria share genes—including those that spread antibiotic resistance.
Research has shed important new light on the enemies-turned-allies that allow bacteria to exchange genes, including those ...
