In biology classes from high school through university, I learned that mitochondria are little objects that reside within ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...

Our cells rely on microscopic highways and specialized protein vehicles to move everything—from positioning organelles to carting protein instructions to disposing of cellular garbage. These highways ...

These fundamental findings offer a novel mechanism by which rubrerythrin tubules encapsulate encapsulin to prevent oxidative stress in Pyrococcus furiosus. However, there are a few reasonable concerns ...

BACKGROUND: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is substantially influenced by genetic factors. Sarcomere function is intricately associated with other organelles, particularly the reciprocal regulation ...

Researchers have captured a time-resolved video of a protein interaction essential to healthy brain development.

Abstract: The acrosome is a Golgi-derived sperm cell organelle enclosed by a ... fluorescence microscopy and equatorin-enhanced green fluorescent protein transgenic mice. The STED images were compared ...

A research team from National Taiwan University has developed a new electron microscopy technique that enables sensitive ...

When all you’ve got is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And when you’ve got a scanning electron microscope, everything must look like a sample that would be really, really interesting ...
