Bacteria aren’t just mindless microbes. Research by scientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has revealed that single bacterial cells can carry a “memory” of their past environments—passing it ...

The cartoon illustrates how single-cell transcriptomics works: all mRNA molecules are recorded and characterized from countless bacterial cells, which are shown here in survival size on a conveyor ...

Antibiotic-driven modifications to ribosomal RNA (rRNA) have been suspected of giving rise to antibiotic resistance. For example, antibiotics can alter methylation patterns in rRNA, changing rRNA ...

Microcolonies as a window into memory The Microcolony-seq method works by isolating tiny colonies that sprout from individual bacteria, analyzing their RNA, genomes, and physical traits. This approach ...

A comprehensive review article titled “Bioinformatics perspectives on transcriptomics: A comprehensive review of bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing analyses,” published in Quantitative Biology, ...

Bacteria aren't just mindless microbes. New research from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem reveals that single bacterial cells can carry a "memory" of their past environments-passing it down through ...
