The biogenesis of bacterial outer membranes; how bacteria build their surface membranes. The outer membrane protects probiotic bacteria in the human intestine and enables pathogenic bacteria to cause infectious diseases. We will determine bacteria build their outer membranes - outstanding training opportunities come through cutting edge technology and the development of skills not common in Australia.
The biogenesis of bacterial outer membranes: how bacteria build their surface coating. This project will determine how bacteria build their outer membranes. The outer membrane protects 'probiotic bacteria' in the human intestine and enables 'pathogenic' bacteria to cause infectious diseases. The project presents outstanding training opportunities with the use of cutting edge technology and the development of skills not common in Australia.
