The functions of biomolecules, including lipids, nucleic acids and especially proteins are determined to a great extent by their structure. This structure–function relationship is a foundation ...

MP, which was found to play a critical role in upholding mitochondrial structure and regulating metabolic stress in mouse fat cells.

This finding emphasizes that membrane viscosity, previously overlooked, is a key factor in how membranes bend and reshape, offering new insights into cellular structure and function.

Our cells produce a variety of proteins, each with a specific role that, in many cases, means that they need to be in a ...

This approach can also help researchers study how cells interact with each other. Cryo-ET is likely to remain a specialized tool for some time. But further technological developments and increasing ...

Specific cell populations also formed cellular communities in various combinations, with signaling pathways between the cell populations within the community defining their structure and function.

Proteins are the key players that regulate cellular structure and function. DNA, which functions as the blueprint for protein synthesis, is first transcribed into a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is ...

The cell nucleus is considered to be the control center of vital cellular processes, but its material properties continue to puzzle scientists. An international research team has now developed a ...

Scientists at the Babraham Institute have developed a method to “time jump” human skin cells by 30 years, turning back the cellular aging clock without losing specialized cellular function ...
