Bacteria have evolved many different signal transduction systems that sense signals and
generate a variety of responses. Generally, most abundant are transcriptional regulators …

Chemoreceptors in bacteria detect a variety of signals and feed this information into
chemosensory pathways that represent a major mode of signal transduction. The five …

The brominated flame retardant 2, 2′, 4, 4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) is
extensively used, stable, and difficult to degrade in the environment. The existence of BDE …

Engineering and modifying synthetic microbial chassis is one of the best ways not only to
