The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

In what they labeled a “surprising” finding, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers studying bacteria from freshwater lakes and soil say they have determined a protein’s essential role in maintaining the ...

Researchers have determined a protein’s essential role in bacterial envelope structure and function, which could inspire a search for better antibiotics. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University (MD, ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have solved a 60-year-old mystery in bacterial cell envelope biology, defining the primary function of an important protein complex ...

Researchers describe the full molecular structure of the phage DEV. DEV infects and lyses Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, an opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis and other diseases. DEV is part ...

Some bacteria deploy tiny spearguns to retaliate against rival attacks. Researchers mimicked attacks by poking bacteria with an ultra-sharp tip. Using this approach, they have uncovered that bacteria ...

While largely unnoticed, phages do not harm humans. On the contrary, these viruses are gaining increasing popularity as biomedicines to eradicate pathogenic bacteria, especially those associated with ...
