All living organisms are made up of cells. It is the basic, structural, and functional unit of life. Also, it is known as "Building blocks of life". Cell biology is the study of cells. It consists of ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

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 ...

We're excited to announce an open post-doctoral position in Robert Vacha's Research Group! Eukaryotic and prokaryotic plasma membranes exhibit inherent asymmetry, with distinct lipid compositions ...
