This study identifies a lipid cue that drives the subcellular localization of a bacterial transmembrane protein, ShfA, by binding to undecaprenyl phosphate.

This study shows that bacterial differentiation through altruistic feeding and cell-cell signaling increases phenotypic heterogeneity, enhancing population resilience to environmental changes.

This study demonstrates that SSHELs, synthetic bacterial spore-like particles, can deliver chemotherapy to HER2-positive cancer cells with reduced toxicity and effectiveness in tumor models.
