Protein biosynthesis—the process whereby cells produce protein molecules, which are essential for life and growth—is a highly ...

Newly characterised metabolic pathways are included, as well as the latest understanding of metabolic regulation and stress responses. Additionally, the link between energetics, growth and survival is ...

Discover how gut bacteria may have influenced the development of our large brains. Dive into the groundbreaking study that ...

There was overall coherence between the various aspects of bacterial C metabolism: communities with low BGE also tended to have low growth rates and high leucine-to-thymidine incorporation ratios. The ...

For example, in plants, specific metabolic pathways can produce glucose and chlorophyll. Metabolic pathways can be described as a series of chemical reactions that start with a substrate and ...

Environmental control of metabolism Micro-organisms include prokaryotes (archaea, bacteria) as well as some species of eukaryotes. They can be grown in laboratories and require specific conditions ...

Would you believe that your brain size is based on your gut bacteria? Weird right? The idea that gut bacteria have an ...

The trillions of microbial cells in our gastrointestinal tract have their own genomes and metabolic products, many of which ...

Cornell researchers have discovered a pathway by which E. coli regulates all-important zinc levels, an insight that could advance the understanding of metal regulation in bacteria generally and ...
