Study Gains New Insight Into Bacterial DNA Packing

Thursday, July 2, 2020 - 08:50 in Biology & Nature

When bacteria are put in different environments, such as one that is more acidic or anaerobic, their genes start to adapt remarkably quickly. They’re able to do so because the proteins making up their chromosome can pack and unpack rapidly. Now, a Berkeley Lab-led team of researchers has been able to capture this process at […]
