Leveraging advanced cryogenic electron microscopy and biochemical methods, they have managed to describe how mycobacteria ...

An analysis of fungi collected from peat bogs has identified several species that produce substances toxic to the bacterium that causes the human disease tuberculosis. The findings suggest that one ...

Fungi from peat bogs produce substances toxic to tuberculosis bacteria, potentially guiding new treatment development.

They found that mycobacteria: are more prevalent in the United States than in Europe; thrive more in municipal tap water than in well water; are more abundant in metal showerheads than in plastic ones ...

An analysis of fungi collected from peat bogs has identified several species that produce substances toxic to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the bacterium that causes tuberculosis in humans. The ...

We are broadly interested in the biology of mycobacteria, which include the major human pathogen M. tuberculosis, the nonpathogenic model organism M. smegmatis, and the cancer biotherapeutic agent BCG ...

Michael S. Glickman, MD Physician-scientist Michael Glickman investigates the physiology and pathogenic mechanisms of mycobacteria, including the use of mycobacteria as bacterial cancer therapies.

This important study by Bi and colleagues employed a clever genetics screen to uncover the role of the GidB rRNA methylase in translation fidelity, under certain conditions, in Mycobacterium smegmatis ...
