An international team led by researchers from the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has used advanced ...

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

Researchers discovered that immune-related proteins form membrane-bound rings that help regulate cell death signals, ensuring ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, a large team of researchers from the United States (U.S.) used single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing combined with high-resolution ...

Can the bend of a banana give us insight into cancer? What does the shape of a rice grain have to do with infertility? The ...

Researchers examined anatomy of neurons from humans, mice and fruit flies. They discovered that the cellular structure of the brain is at a critical point, poised between two phases. New insights ...

Mammalian oocytes utilize a conserved combination of cell cycle control, cytoskeletal organization, and polarity pathways that are fundamentally shared with other vertebrates and invertebrates.

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers. (Nanowerk ...
