A Scripps team has adapted advanced imaging and computation to measure cell membrane thickness inside intact animal and yeast cells, uncovering organelle-specific differences and local patterns ...
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it ...
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, ...
All life on Earth shares a common ancestor that lived roughly four billion years ago. This so-called "last universal common ...
‘Tiny biological batteries’ can change the cell membrane’s electrical properties – a discovery that has big implications for health, as many essential cellular processes hinge upon precise electrical ...
Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles whose acidic lumen (pH 4.5–5.0) is required for degradation. This luminal acidity is known to regulate cytosolic-side functions such as membrane fusion/fission, ...
