Research conducted by Toyohashi University of Technology in collaboration with Tohoku University elucidated the fusion process of proteoliposomes with an artificial lipid bilayer and the mechanism ...

Scientists at EPFL have developed CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that makes centrioles and cilia visible inside living cells, ...

The structure of the cell, and its components, have largely been explored through methods such as protein fluorescent imaging and protein biophysical association. Now, researchers have combined ...

In a study that may guide drug design, researchers find organelles encounter varying levels of resistance, depending on their size and speed, as they move through a cell's cytoplasm. Under a ...

Average location of 17 structures, each a different color, inside of a human cell. (Allen Institute Image / Matheus P. Viana et al. ) Our cells are built from smaller structures that specialize in the ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have shown great potential for use as cellular probes. As “nanopipes” they can be used to transport liquids to or from cells and inject solutions or drugs directly into ...

Neuroscientists have moved one step closer to understanding the complete list of cell types in the brain. In the most comprehensive study of its kind to date, the researchers sorted cells from the ...
