Researchers have unseated a previous theory for the mechanism underlying bacterial flagella movement, changing our ...

How well bacteria move and sense their environment directly affects their success in surviving and spreading. About half of known bacteria species use a flagella to move — a rotating appendage that ...

Scientists have uncovered a new explanation for how swimming bacteria change direction, providing fresh insight into one of ...

New studies from Arizona State University reveal surprising ways bacteria can move without their flagella—the slender, whip-like propellers that usually drive them forward. Subscribe to our newsletter ...

New studies from Arizona State University reveal surprising ways bacteria can move without their flagella - the slender, whip-like propellers that usually drive them forward. Movement lets bacteria ...

Bacteria can effectively travel even without their propeller-like flagella — by “swashing” across moist surfaces using chemical currents, or by gliding along a built-in molecular conveyor belt. New ...

New mechanistic insights into the protein complex that powers the bacterial flagellum may assist antibiotic development. A study led by researchers at the University of Copenhagen (Denmark) used ...

Recently, a research group led by Prof. WANG Junfeng from the Hefei Institute of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with Prof. HE Yongxing's research group from Lanzhou ...
