When scientists isolated the kinetoplast using density gradients and centrifugation, collected the DNA content on grids, and studied it under the electron microscope, they discovered that the kDNA ...

In short, while bacteria may not have “sex lives” in the way humans do, their frequent DNA exchanges play a crucial role in keeping their species distinct and thriving. This discovery opens up ...
