A first look into the molecular defenses of archaea highlights the importance of surveying diverse microbes to discover new types of antimicrobials As bacteria become increasingly resistant to ...

Researchers have succeeded in cultivating an ultra-small bacterial strain parasitizing archaea and classified it as new species and genus of Minisyncoccus archaeiphilus. AIST researchers, in ...

Following the drive to understand and control bacteria, it’s becoming clear that our methods have changed the very organisms we aim to understand, increasing resistance to tried-and-true antimicrobial ...

Archaea are microorganisms that were only discovered in the 1970s, and scientists still have a lot to learn about them. One challenge is that archaea are difficult to raise in the laboratory. As of ...

From different angles, EMBL researchers are looking at archaea with the hope these understudied organisms will answer questions about evolution ...

AIST researchers, in collaboration with JAMSTEC, Hokkaido University and Tohoku University, have succeeded in cultivating an ultrasmall bacterial strain parasitizing archaea and classified the strain ...
