Lipids in cell membranes regulate the activity of a cancer-linked protein, cell biologists at RIKEN have discovered. This ...

The development and spread of antibiotic resistance represents one of the greatest threats to global health. To overcome ...

Lipid bilayers in mammalian membranes can have a more asymmetric composition than previously thought, new research shows.

Scientists apply principles of math and physics to unravel the mystery of how the endoplasmic reticulum, an organelle vital ...

Transport of molecules within a cell and out of the cell requires a complex endomembrane system. Endocytosis occurs when the cell membrane engulfs particles (dark blue) outside the cell, draws the ...

The thylakoids contain the light-harvesting complex, including pigments such ... and then assembled by enzymes associated with the cell membrane (Figure 3). Plant cells additionally possess ...

Nuclera, the biotechnology company accelerating protein expression and optimization through its benchtop eProtein Discovery™ system, today announced the addition of a new membrane protein workflow to ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...
