Saccharin destabilizes bacterial membranes and interferes with DNA replication, causing lysis and impairing virulence traits.
A key focus for the research team was cell lysis, the process by which viruses cause bacterial cells to burst open at just the right moment to release new viruses. This precise timing, essential ...
a process called cell lysis, or the phage can integrate its genome into the bacterial one and remain dormant, a process called lysogeny. The outcome depends on how many phages are simultaneously ...
Cell death is crucial for organogenesis in utero ... which leads to pathological ion fluxes that ultimately result in cellular lysis and release of inflammatory intracellular contents.
