Researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed that cells use a previously unknown feat of molecular craftsmanship ...
A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...
A study could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future research on diseases linked to membrane organization. A new ...
Even after decades of peering into cells, biologists are still finding surprises. In a twist, researchers at the University of Virginia and the National Institutes of Health uncovered a new organelle, ...
In the evolutionary history of life, the ability of a cell to separate its inner world from the external environment was an ...
Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...
Allan Albig receives funding from the National Institute of Health. Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside ...
