Study details how nutrient-starved cells divert protein transport stations to cellular recycling centers to be broken down, highlighting a novel approach cells use to deal with stressful conditions. A ...

Observing proteins with precision in living cells has been a challenge for researchers across various disciplines. Now, Stefan Kubicek, PhD, and his team at CEMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine ...

Cells are highly controlled spaces that rely on every protein being in the right place. Many diseases, including cancers and neurodegenerative disorders, are associated with misplaced proteins. In ...

Nivedita Pujari, a postdoctoral researcher at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, studies how herpes simplex virus uses ...

Light microscope image of red blood cells infected with malaria. The dark purple spots in a few of the cells are malaria parasites. Malaria kills over 600,000 people a year, and as the climate warms, ...

Sometimes, transporting electrons from one cell to another is a team effort. In electroactive bacteria, that team is a group ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new role for little-known brain cells called tanycytes that may influence the development of Alzheimer’s disease. These specialized cells appear to help remove ...

The BioPORTER ® protein delivery reagent from AMSBIO has been proven to efficiently transport functionally active proteins directly into living cells, eliminating the traditional DNA transfection, ...

A research team led by Sahand Jamal Rahi at EPFL’s Laboratory of the Physics of Biological Systems has introduced a new approach called “optovolution.” This technique uses light to guide the evolution ...

Enhanced FIB-SEM images of untreated cells and cells treated with Torin, which causes nutrient stress. The ER exit sites (magenta), ER (blue), mitochondria (green), and all lysosome-related organelles ...
