An international team of scientists has unveiled the most comprehensive model yet that explains how cells control the flow of materials in and out of their nuclei—solving one of biology's oldest ...

Just as life pulsates in big vibrant cities, it also prospers in crowded environments inside cells. The interior of cells is densely packed with biomolecules like proteins and nucleic acids. How is ...

UC Davis researchers tracked the movement of fluorescent particles inside the cells of microscopic worms, providing novel insights into cellular crowding in a multicellular animal. They found that the ...

A fluorescent lamin A/C reporter in primary human fibroblasts showed that representative alpha-, beta- and ...

In living cells, regulation of the electrochemical environment is supposed to be managed by ion channels—protein complexes that reside in cell membranes and assume definite shapes. So, it’s surprising ...
