Cells organize their molecules into distinct functional areas. While textbooks usually refer to membrane-bound organelles ...

Thanks to a recent study by researchers at IOCB Prague, it is now possible to monitor processes in living cells more ...

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have a unique resource in the form of the Center for Biomolecular ...

DNA, though tightly packed in the nucleus, is constantly threatened by damage from metabolism and external stressors. One particularly severe form of DNA damage is the so-called DNA–protein crosslinks ...

These include stress granules and proteasome storage granules (PSGs). In the past, these membraneless organelles were only visible as “droplets” using a fluorescence microscope. Now, researchers from ...

In yeast, the CDK and cyclin proteins that drive cell division activate first in the nucleus — a different location in the cell from where was previously thought. James E. Ferrell Jr is in the ...

From personalized vaccines to next-generation screening technologies, the ways the world treats and detects cancer could shift dramatically in the coming years. But there are many challenges ahead, as ...

In a study published in Cell Research, researchers have identified a fibrous-layer resident subpopulation of P-SSCs labeled ...

Every second, millions of cells in your body divide in two. In the space of an hour, they duplicate their DNA and grow a web of protein fibers around ...

The University of Cincinnati Cancer Center’s Tom Cunningham has received a two-year, $150,000 grant from the Lung Cancer Research Foundation (LCRF) to test approaches to neutralize an enzyme complex ...
