Advances in imaging technologies have revealed that many bacteria possess organelles
with a proteomically defined lumen and a macromolecular boundary. Some are bound by a …

Anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria are one of the latest scientific
discoveries in the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle. These microorganisms are able to oxidize …

Anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria primarily grow by the oxidation of
ammonium coupled to nitrite reduction, using CO2 as the sole carbon source. Although they …

John Dupré explores recent revolutionary developments in biology and considers their
relevance for our understanding of human nature and human society. Epigenetics and …

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria, which were discovered in waste-water
