Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common bacterium that lives in the intestines of animals and humans, and it is often used to ...

You wouldn't know by looking at Escherichia coli that it's kind of a big deal. The non-descript, pill-shaped cell is why we understand fundamental life processes (think DNA replication and ...

At least 10 people have been hospitalized, according to the CDC. Dozens of people across the U.S. have contracted E. coli traced to ingredients in McDonald's Quarter Pounders, the Centers for ...

In Escherichia coli, a widely studied species of bacteria ... to hypothesize that IbpA may be influencing the expression of σ 32, a master heat shock transcription factor responsible for regulating ...

As a consequence, the repressor dislodges from the operon and facilitates initiating gene transcription. Therefore, when E. coli grow on sources other than lactose, such as carbon-based sources ...

Searching the literature for something that could explain this, the team identified a transcription factor called BCL6 ... and they lost the ability to fight E. coli infection. The results point to ...

transcription of two proteins that take up DNA only when long strands are present. Accordingly, it can be concluded that E. coli can detect the exogenous DNA and be able to “eat” it as food ...

This study presents a library of Escherichia coli strains where the concentration of individual transcription factors (TF) can be independently tuned and measured, allowing the analysis of copy number ...

In vitro transcription (IVT), the enzymatic process used for the production of mRNA vaccines, differentiates itself from biological fermentation processes by the need for linearized plasmid DNA. The ...
