Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed DeMemSeg, an AI-powered analysis pipeline that addresses a long-standing challenge in microscopy: precisely segmenting and measuring individual cell ...
Some eukaryotes consist of a single cell; but most single-celled creatures are made of simpler cells which lack obvious ...
Just as life pulsates in big vibrant cities, it also prospers in crowded environments inside cells. The interior of cells is densely packed with biomolecules like proteins and nucleic acids. How is ...
The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the development of CRISPR/Cas9, a method also known as "gene scissors," which enables researchers to better understand how human cells function and ...
Cellular membrane proteins play many important roles throughout the body, including transporting substances in and out of the ...
A study could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future research on diseases linked to membrane organization. A new ...
A team of researchers at Karolinska Institutet, together with colleagues from Linköping University, has uncovered the ...
A previously unknown structure discovered in our cells could pave the way toward new treatments for various genetic disorders. The existence of the organelle—which has been dubbed the "hemifusome"—was ...
More than a billion years ago a hungry cell devoured a tiny blue-green alga. But instead of the former simply digesting the latter, the duo struck a remarkable evolutionary deal. Now scientists are ...
