Imagine a microscopic locomotive moving back and forth along a track, propelling itself without any external force. At the molecular level, this concept forms the foundation of molecular motors -- ...
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...
Researchers found that Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria rapidly assemble their T6SS nanoweapons in response to outer membrane ...
Some Pseudomonas species use specialized microscopic membrane devices to fight back against competing bacteria.
Some bacteria deploy tiny spearguns to retaliate against rival attacks. Researchers at the University of Basel have mimicked ...
