Researchers developed a high-throughput microfluidics-based method to measure and analyze lipids in single living cells using ...

All known life forms are made up of cells enclosed by lipid membranes that separate and protect the cell’s contents. The ...

Variability among lipids affects cellular metabolism, signaling pathways, energy storage, and cell membrane structures. Therefore, it’s important for biomanufacturers to have an accurate ...

Few questions have captivated humankind more than the origin of life on Earth. How did the first living cells come to exist?

Scientists have long wondered how the first cell membranes formed from the primordial soup—a new study offers up a recipe.

Membraneless organelles, also called biomolecular condensates, are changing how scientists think about protein chemistry, ...

The investigators studied the membrane-targeting sequence (MTS) of bactofilin A (BacA) in Caulobacter crescentus to explore its role in membrane binding and polymerization. They used various ...

Membraneless organelles, also called biomolecular condensates, are changing how scientists think about protein chemistry, ...

A Japanese team has developed a technique to insert chloroplasts isolated from algae into animal cells, a feat that could ...

Since α-synuclein needs to cross the cell membrane in order to spread ... Does inhibiting TMEM16F actually reduce the ...

It is comparatively easy to tell a cell's state of health: On their surface, cells present fragments of almost all the proteins they contain inside. This means the immune system can directly recognize ...
