The system seems versatile enough to detect basically any molecule, chemical or bacteria, good or bad. By adding two ...

This study introduces hyperspectral reporters, a novel tool for real-time gene expression monitoring in living organisms ...

For an aquatic bacterium called Rubrivivax gelatinosus, they used a type of bacteriochlorophyll. For each bacterium, the researchers engineered the enzymes necessary to produce the reporter into the ...

Energy-yielding carbon-monoxide-oxidation pathways, as well as broadly distributed bacteriochlorophyll- and proteorhodopsin-based light-energy harvesting systems, represent new and apparently ...

Their primary selections were biliverdin, a pigment derived from heme breakdown, which serves as a biomarker in soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida, and bacteriochlorophyll, a photosynthetic pigment ...
