They derive their energy from differences in the concentration of hydrogen ions across some of these membranes ...

Recent research indicates that the spatial architecture of membrane proteins is crucial for regulating T-cell signaling and activation. 3-5 In the context of CAR T cells, the nanoscale localization ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

Bacteria insert proteins into their outer membrane using a highly conserved apparatus known as the β-barrel assembly ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have successfully applied cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to ...

Serine serves as a metabolic nexus in tumors, coordinating one-carbon metabolism, nucleotide synthesis, and redox regulation.

Researchers have discovered that damage to the cell membrane promotes cellular senescence, or cell aging. Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that's only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap ...

The impermeability of our nerve cells is a vital barrier for their proper functioning. Researchers have just discovered how ...

Nearly every cell in your body depends on mitochondria to survive and function properly. Mitochondria provide 90% of our ...

A new study by the University of California, Davis, shows how cells work together to avoid a sudden drop in blood sugar.
