Conjugation is a form of horizontal gene transfer that allows the exchange of genetic material between two organisms or cells. In this article, we discuss the mechanism of conjugation and how ...

Gene’rating antifungals via bacterial conjugation to yeast Scientists develop superior plasmids that can be transferred from bacteria to yeast via conjugation to create novel antifungal ...

This process, known as bacterial conjugation, is a key mechanism by which genetic traits, particularly antibiotic resistance, are shared among bacterial populations. While conjugation has ...

Conjugation has classically been considered a bacterium-to-bacterium DNA transfer driven by the donor cell and is typically plasmid-encoded. Theoretically it is possible that any type of cell can ...

The research centered on bacterial conjugation, the process by which bacteria share genetic material, including antibiotic resistance.

The Space Lab’s first study in 2022 explored bacterial conjugation, a process by which bacteria exchange DNA. Surprisingly, researchers found that space conditions appeared to inhibit the spread ...

Bacteria in our intestines engage in genetic exchanges, called bacterial conjugation, and sometimes this gene swapping promotes antibiotic resistance. Could zinc, a well-known supplement, help curb ...

Omniose, a preclinical biotechnology company, today announced an exclusive collaboration agreement with AstraZeneca to research potential vaccines for ...
