Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it relentlessly to stay alive. Proteins twist, ions rush, and membranes flex as life ...
‘Tiny biological batteries’ can change the cell membrane’s electrical properties – a discovery that has big implications for health, as many essential cellular processes hinge upon precise electrical ...
Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move remain unclear. Research published in the Biophysical Journal shows that ...
Schematic of an active cell membrane. In a typical active biological process, active proteins (shown in a variety of colors) in a cell membrane (shown in blue) interact with various biological ...
FAMU-FSU College of Engineering researchers are applying fuel cell technology to new applications like sustainable energy and water treatment. In a study published in Frontiers in Membrane Science and ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Northwestern University identified a previously unknown treatment opportunity for sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia. The discovery, ...
DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...

The researchers say it was taught in biochemistry class for many decades that glycolysis occurred uniformly in the cytosol, or the fluid matrix of the cell. But when the Johns Hopkins team examined ...
Cell biology is a world of constant motion and hidden structures. Much of what we know about cells comes from decades of research using microscopes, stains, and models. Yet, even in this well-charted ...
