Northwestern University researchers have identified structural features in engineered cell receptors that correlate with ...

The structure and function of key prokaryotic cell structures. Prokaryotes have ribosomes but they are smaller and structurally simpler than those in eukaryotic cells. These non-membrane-bound ...

Scientists uncover how the nucleolus, a tiny structure within cells, may control aging and lifespan, opening new ...

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Rhobo6, a light microscopy probe, gives scientists an unprecedented look at the extracellular matrix -- the collection of organized molecular structures that fills the spaces between cells in our ...

R esearchers have developed a way to grow human-sized tooth-like tissues in the mouths of pigs – this may be a lot to chew on ...

Autophagy is the process by which cells digest and renew their internal structures ... improving autophagy function has the potential to slow cellular aging by preserving organelle quality ...

Far from being uniform in structure and function, these enzymes display a ... such as neuronal precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated protein 8 (NEDD8), in which the C-terminal ...

Bacteria are amongst the simplest of organisms - they are made of single cells. Their cell structure is simpler than the cells of animals ... cell organelles include mitochondria, ribosomes ...

Scientists have developed Rhobo6, a light microscopy probe that reveals extracellular matrix structures in live tissues, ...

This study is the first to demonstrate that certain tRNA introns influence gene expression. Scientists have discovered that ...
