Out Now! Peptidoglycan–outer membrane attachment generates periplasmic pressure to prevent lysis in Gram-negative bacteria bit.ly/4kZA3gF #Peptidoglycan #BacteriaResearch #Microbiology

This paper is really elegant and beautiful. Researchers took a vesicle, filled it with a single type of enzyme and some protein pores, and showed that this "minimal cell," made from just three components (!!), could "actively propel itself toward an enzyme substrate gradient."
