Proteins are the molecular machines of cells. They are produced in protein factories called ribosomes based on their ...

These include stress granules and proteasome storage granules (PSGs). In the past, these membraneless organelles were only visible as “droplets” using a fluorescence microscope. Now, researchers from ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...

The Artemis 2 astronauts will venture deeper into space than any human has gone before. That presents some seriously exciting ...

In 1869, Swiss scientist Friedrich Miescher isolated a mysterious substance from cell nuclei—an overlooked finding that would ...

Explore the connection between neurodegeneration and cellular senescence in understanding brain structure and ageing.

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely ...

Cells organize their molecules into distinct functional areas. While textbooks usually refer to membrane-bound organelles ...

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have created a molecule that naturally forms p/n junctions, structures that are ...

A fast-aging fish is giving scientists a rare, accelerated look at how kidneys grow old—and how a common drug may slow that ...

Researchers at the University of Twente and Radboudumc are developing a promising new model to enhance understanding of the ...

New study shows how bacteria adapted a virus-derived injection system to recognize and attach to many different types of ...
