Explore how correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) enables high-resolution insights into endocytic sorting.

Biomolecular condensates were long believed to be simple liquid blobs inside cells. Researchers have now uncovered that some are actually supported by fine protein filaments forming an internal ...

Cells rely on biomolecular condensates to coordinate essential biological processes without surrounding membranes. These droplet-like dynamic assemblies control the way in which DNA is turned into ...

When Motorola introduced its first mobile phone in 1984, the company hoped for a buying frenzy. But even the best marketers couldn’t have predicted the success of mobile phones. Today, mobile phones ...

The development of complex organs relies on cell–cell interactions that are precisely orchestrated during organogenesis. Although it appears as a random patchwork of hormone-producing cells, the ...

Researchers from the University of Chicago (IL, USA) have reported that unstable, or ‘noisy’, chromatin enables cells to take on different roles in the body. This flexibility can support the immune ...

ABSTRACT: The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant global health challenge, necessitating the search for alternative therapeutic strategies. Targeting bacterial quorum sensing ...

Since each cell has about six feet of DNA packed inside it, it must be folded up tightly to fit. This folding not only saves space -- it also controls which genes are active or inactive. But when the ...

Red blood cells transport oxygen throughout your body, including to vital organs and tissues. They also help your body get rid of carbon dioxide. Too little or too many red blood cells may be ...

ABSTRACT: The origin of complex biological symmetric structures has long been a subject of interest and debate. How new sophisticated structures arise, perfectly meshed together, and added to ...

Kidney cells can make memories too. At least, in a molecular sense. Neurons have historically been the cell most associated with memory. But far outside the brain, kidney cells can also store ...
