A research team led by UAB researcher David Reverter has discovered the molecular mechanism that describes in detail the ...

Brain cells are constantly swallowing material from the fluid that surrounds them—signaling molecules, nutrients, even pieces of their own surfaces—in a process known as endocytosis that is essential ...

Proteins are the molecular machines of cells. They are produced in protein factories called ribosomes based on their blueprint—the genetic information. Here, the basic building blocks of proteins, ...

Research at the (Finland) reveals that autonomous parvoviruses, such as canine parvovirus, are highly capable of affecting ...

Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

Unlike virtually every other cell in the human body, the syncytiotrophoblast doesn't have a single nucleus. It has roughly 10 ...

Researchers are embarking on the RNA equivalent of the Human Genome Project, including sequencing all the chemical ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...
