Mirror life, a concept involving synthetic organisms with reversed molecular structures, carries significant risks despite ...

The capacity of bacteria to spread disease across the Plant Kingdom may be much more widespread than previously suspected, according to new analysis.

Experts warn that these mirror organisms would be 'invisible' to life on Earth, allowing them to slip past the immune ...

This could be a funny test to see if all your friends actually look like their Bitmojis in real life! Even though everyone would most likely be in pretty simple fits, the theme itself is still cute ...

Point mutations are often thought of as the raw material of evolution; these small changes ... us insights into the evolutionary pressures on bacterial pathogens.

Life exists and even thrives over this enormous range. This huge range in pH presents both a challenge and an opportunity for evolution to produce species whose ecology and physiology are adapted ...

(DALLE-E) Phosphorus and oxygen are crucial elements for the evolution of complex life. The study suggests that rare underwater volcanic activity, resulting from the collision of the Congo and São ...

We know that Darwinian evolution acts on all forms of life, but does evolution act on non-living materials as well? Otto and his team used a system of three different self-replicating molecules ...

If it were possible to tell the signs your body is fighting a bacterial infection from those of a viral infection ... In other cases, illnesses can be life-threatening. Many symptoms of infection ...

Researchers from Lund University discovered that Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria found in Ukraine war-wounded victims are not only resistant to all antibiotics but are also particularly aggressive ...

In the present study, we observed a fast evolution of β-lactam resistance (20-fold increase in MIC in 8 hours) in E. coli after deleting RecA and exposing the bacteria to a single dose of ampicillin.
