The formation of disulfide bonds is critical to the folding of many extracytoplasmic proteins in all domains of life. With the discovery in the early 1990s that disulfide bond formation is catalyzed by enzymes, the field of oxidative foldin...
Mechanisms of Type I-E and I-F CRISPR-Cas Systems in Enterobacteriaceae [0.03%]

Antibiotic resistance is a major public health threat that has stimulated the scientific community to search for nontraditional therapeutic targets. Because virulence, but not the growth, of many Gram-negative bacterial pathogens depends on...
Similarities and Differences between Colicin and Filamentous Phage Uptake by Bacterial Cells [0.03%]
