Adhesion junction is crucial for the stability of the epithelial lateral membrane and the maintenance of cell polarity. E-cadherin is an essential cell-cell adhesion protein, with the canonical E ...

Work over the past two years has led to a breakthrough in our understanding of the molecular basis of the directionality of the kinesin motor proteins. This breakthrough has come first from the ...

The use of "anno domini" and "before Christ" to mark time began in the early days of Christianity, and they're still used to track calendar years today. When reading historical texts or delving ...

The great power competition currently underway has created space for second-tier states, or middle powers, to emerge as strong as ever. Alarmed by the growing disruptions to the post-World War II ...

It is involved in various biological processes, such as the extension and contraction of the cell edge, as well as intracellular transport processes within the microtubule system (Pollard and Cooper, ...

Due to the established solvatochromism of Reichardt’s dye, we interpreted the observed shifts as indicating a change in the polarity of the solvent under vibrational strong coupling (VSC) and that the ...

But far less is known about how cells and molecules stand up to the squeezing, crushing weight of thousands of feet of seawater. “The animals that live down in the deep sea are not ones that ...

Noting that the morphology, molecular components, and subcellular flow patterns of growth cones strongly resemble the leading edge of migrating cells and the polar regions of dividing cells, our ...
