A Scripps team has adapted advanced imaging and computation to measure cell membrane thickness inside intact animal and yeast ...
Two studies by scientists at the University of Chicago have demonstrated a new way to look into the inner workings of cells—in particular, to track the flow of ions inside the many tiny organelles ...
(Nanowerk News) A research team led by biophysical chemist Professor Edward Lemke has engineered a designer organelle in a living mammalian cell in a new complex biological translation process. The ...
FtsZ is required for the formation of a ring structure, known as the Z ring, at the site of cell or organelle division. Contraction of the Z ring leads to fission of the cell or organelle. The FtsZ ...
Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...
Our body is made up of many different kinds of cells, and inside each cell are organelles, tiny machines that help carry out cellular functions. New work reveals more about a network connecting two ...
Scientists have made a breakthrough in understanding how different compartments (or organelles) of human cells interact. Scientists have made a breakthrough in understanding how different compartments ...
Cells in symbiotic partnership, nested one within the other and functioning like organelles, can borrow from their host’s genes to complete their own metabolic pathways. There are few relationships in ...
