Researchers from New England Biolabs (NEB®) and Yale University describe the first fully synthetic bacteriophage engineering ...

Scientists have demonstrated a new potential way to edit the genomes of bacteria in complex environments, by equipping viruses to hunt them down and insert the CRISPR gene-editing system. In nature, ...

By the late 1990s, scientists realized that virus activity was likely shaping how carbon and nutrients cycled through ocean ...

A new discovery could help stop bacteria being contaminated with viruses, reducing disruption and decreasing costs in industry and research. A new discovery by researchers at the University of Warwick ...

Bacteria belong to the monera kingdom, alongside plants, animals, fungi, and protists, and are therefore considered living creatures. Viruses, on the other hand, are closer to collections of molecules ...
