The researchers found that the ZO-1 protein directs YB-1 to form beneficial stress granules. Stress granules are clusters of proteins that assemble inside cells exposed to stressful conditions ...

With the new aerobic granular sludge technology (Nereda TM), aerobic (thus oxygen using) bacterial granules are formed in the water that is to be purified. The great advantage of these granules is ...

However, as a bacterial colony develops, “growing pains” are inevitable, as proliferating cells must balance growth rates with the stress of overcrowding and nutrient resource limitations. Other ...

Groundbreaking scientific research reveals the incredible connection between gut bacteria and stress responses, offering new hope for mental health treatment.

Researchers at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology and the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research revealed a mechanism involving protein aggregation that allows bacteria to enter a ...

By connecting these devices to a syringe and pump, they generate realistic flow environments to study how bacteria respond under stress. Previous research from Sanfilippo's lab uncovered the ...
