Adaptor protein (AP) complexes play central roles in intracellular vesicular trafficking by coupling cargo selection to ...

A new study by researchers in Japan offers new insights into how protocells may have inherited and enriched genetic material before modern biology emerged. By exposing mixed phospholipid vesicles to ...

Proteomics experiments on Drosophila reveal sex-specific effects in aging, and an important role for a protein called DIP-β.

Drug discovery is shifting from static snapshots to moving pictures. Instead of inferring how medicines work from end results ...

Smith, C.A. and Pramanik, S. (2026) A Pilot Study on How Microplastic Polluted Rainfall Infiltrates Commonly Eaten Leafy ...

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 ...

Abstract: In recent years, proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) systems have emerged as a promising sustainable energy source, recognized for their high power density and zero-emission ...

Michael Junkin, PhD, leads the instrumentation for Elegen’s DNA synthesis platform. He has more than 15 years of experience in the field of microfluidics, having developed systems to study ...

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 ...

Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...

In this way, the cell actively recruits the functionally important clathrin proteins to the point where the virus is located. The cell surface also actively captures the virus by bulging up at the ...

Optical metasurfaces, with their ultra-thin and lightweight properties, are driving the miniaturization and planarization of optical systems. However, their development from unit-cell design to system ...
