To see how microgravity changes certain microbes, researchers sent bacteria-infecting viruses called bacteriophages to the ...

Bacteriophage T7, a virus that preys on E. coli, becomes a more effective killer after spending time aboard the International Space Station, according to new research from University of ...

The research, published in Science Advances, brought together scientists from Otago and the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology. The team closely examined the molecular structure of Bas63, a ...

An electron micrograph— a photograph taken by means of a transmission electron microscope—of the DT57C bacteriophage. These types of images have been used to obtain a three-dimensional structure of ...

Megan Baldridge and her co-workers will use their Global Grant for Gut Health (GGGH) to examine which human proteins interact with bacteriophage viruses in the gut, and how this might trigger ...

These self-propelling microscopic particles use tailor-made viruses to recognize specific bacteria strains. The viruses bind to matching bacteria to form unique sandwich structures that are then ...

Scientists have discovered that viruses can latch onto other viruses to insert their genes into host cells. Lab results with apparent contamination led the team to directly see the strange interaction ...
