Researchers used cryo-EM, glycoproteomics, and modeling to generate the atomic structure of a fully glycosylated and membrane ...

This membrane protects the cell from its surroundings and divides ... In contrast, many proteins—around 1,400 in the human body—are not so lucky: Their tails are simply too short.

A recent study published in Engineering presents an innovative acoustofluidics-based approach for intracellular nanoparticle ...

Researchers have confirmed that mammalian BK ion channels regulate themselves using a “ball-and-chain” mechanism. A recent ...

This work presents a membrane-targeted azobenzene (MT) as light-responsive tool for cell stimulation. MT photoisomerization alters local charge distribution, inducing depolarization. MT shows stable ...

Profilee Satyajit Mayor discusses his explorations of cell membranes, which are helping to update the classical fluid mosaic model of dynamic cellular boundaries. Amid cuts to federal funding, US ...

The researchers explained that proteins in blood can bind to the sides of medical implants, building up over time and ...

Transplantation of preserved human amniotic membrane (AM) can be considered one ... of the surface of the eye can lead to limbal stem cell deficiency as a result of destruction of limbal stem ...

Messenger RNA can travel between different types of stem cells through tunnel-like structures, as revealed by a new study. By studying interactions between mouse and human stem cells, they discovered ...
