The fatty membrane surrounding every living cell is a vibrant environment where countless biological processes take place.

Breakthrough study in Nature Materials reveals DNA nanorafts reshape synthetic cells for controlled membrane dynamics and ...

The human genome encodes potentially thousands of tiny proteins that were previously overlooked. The search is on to find out ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each performing a specialized function. Researchers have long known that the ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an "outside in" signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work, ...

Researchers developed ProtGPS, an AI tool that predicts protein localization in cells and how mutations affect disease. The ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

Engineered immune cells called CAR-T cells are used in the treatment of cancer. Researchers from Uppsala University have now ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an 'outside in' signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work reveals a new signaling mechanism that could be exploited for delivering other ...
