Cells require a sensory system and a motility structure to achieve directed movement.
Bacteria and archaea possess rotating filamentous motility structures that work in concert …

Archaeal swimming motility is driven by archaella: rotary motors attached to long
extracellular filaments. The structure of these motors, and particularly how they are anchored …

Here we describe the Caltech Tomography Database and automatic image processing
pipeline, designed to process, store, display, and distribute electron tomographic data …

Few contemporary psychologists would probably object to the notion that cognitive
processes contribute to behavioral plasticity (learning) and are intimately linked to brain …

Methane is the second most abundant climate-active gas and understanding its sources and
sinks is a crucial endeavor in microbiology, biogeochemistry, and climate sciences (1, 2) …

Microorganisms can move towards favorable growth conditions as a response to
environmental stimuli. This process requires a motility structure and a system to direct the …

Most motile bacteria are able to bias their movement toward more favorable environments or
to escape from obnoxious substances by a process called chemotaxis. Chemotaxis depends …

The bacterial cytoplasm is not a homogeneous solution of macromolecules, but rather a
highly organized and compartmentalized space where the clustering and segregation of …

Salmonella enterica is the most frequently reported cause of foodborne illness. As in other
microorganisms, chemotaxis affords key physiological benefits, including enhanced access …

Signal transduction via phosphorylated CheY towards the flagellum and the archaellum
involves a conserved mechanism of CheY phosphorylation and subsequent conformational …
