The rise in fluorescence-based imaging techniques over the past 3 decades has improved
the ability of researchers to scrutinize live cell biology at increased spatial and temporal …

Brucella, a Gram-negative bacterium with a high infective capacity and a wide spectrum of
hosts in the animal world, is found in terrestrial and marine mammals, as well as …

Bacteria switch only intermittently to motile planktonic lifestyles under favorable conditions.
Under chronic nutrient deprivation, however, bacteria orchestrate a switch to stationary …

Bacteria use surface-exposed, proteinaceous fibers called pili for diverse behaviors,
including horizontal gene transfer, surface sensing, motility, and pathogenicity. Visualization …

Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are important in the health-care and personal care
industries. Products like bed pads and diapers improve the comfort and sanitary conditions …

The self‐assembly of cellular macromolecular machines such as the bacterial flagellar motor
requires the spatio‐temporal synchronization of gene expression with proper protein …

The bacterial flagellum is a large macromolecular assembly that acts as propeller, providing
motility through the rotation of a long extracellular filament. It is composed of over 20 …

Flagella are highly complex rotary molecular machines that enable bacteria to not only
migrate to optimal environments but also to promote range expansion, competitiveness …

Living cells use long tubular appendages for locomotion and sensory purposes. Hence,
assembling and maintaining a protrusion of correct length is crucial for survival and overall …

Background Many valuable biopharmaceutical and biotechnological proteins have been
produced in Escherichia coli, however these proteins are almost exclusively localised in the …
