The binding constant is an important characteristic of a DNA-binding protein. A large number
of methods exist to measure the binding constant, but many of those methods have intrinsic …

The structure and dynamics of bacterial nucleoids play important roles in regulating gene
expression. Bacteria of class Mollicutes and, in particular, mycoplasmas feature extremely …

organisms from new phyla in anaerobic carbon cycling. Curr Biol 25 (6): 690-701. 42. Saw …

Bacteria have evolved mechanisms that allow them to adapt to changes in osmolarity and
some species have adapted to live optimally in high salinity environments such as the …

The marine bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus has evolved multiple strategies for adapting
to short-and long-term shifts in osmolarity. One such mechanism involves the uptake and/or …

DNA is a storage containing complete data for a living thing. Due to the enormous
information, the DNA is exceedingly longer than the cell diameter. To save the data within …

Nucleoid associated proteins (NAPs) maintain the architecture of bacterial chromosomes
and regulate gene expression. Thus, their role as transcription factors may involve three …
