In a study published June 4 in the Cell Press journal Biophysical Journal, researchers found that bacteria can speed up by using the fluid pockets shaped by neighboring yeast cells.

Most species of bacteria can be broadly divided into two groups, known as gram-positive and gram-negative. These categories ...

These steps include iron uptake by the bacterial cell, magnetosome vesicle formation within the bacteria, iron transport into the magnetosome vesicle, and protein-mediated Fe3O4 or Fe3S4 ...

Bacteria cells in colonies that had previously swarmed were more prone to swarm again than those that hadn't, and their offspring followed suit for at least four generations—about two hours. On ...
