Researchers discover speargun-​like mo­lecu­lar in­jec­tion sys­tems in two types of bacteria

Biologists from ETH Zurich have discovered speargun-like molecular injection systems in two types of bacteria and have described their structure for the first time. The special nanomachines are used by the microbes for the interaction between cells and could one day be useful as tools in biomedicine.
