Cilia, tiny hair-like structures that perform feats such as clearing microscopic debris from the lungs and determining the correct location of organs during development, move in mysterious ways. Their ...

Cygb is a heme-containing globin protein that is not involved with oxygen transport or storage, unlike its pentacoordinate relatives, myoglobin and hemoglobin. Nevertheless, Cygb contains a ...

Countless tiny hairs (cilia) are found on the outer wall of some cells, for example in our lungs or in our brain. When these micrometer-sized hairs coordinate their movement and produce wave-like ...

Cilia -- tiny hair-like structures that perform feats such as clearing microscopic debris from the lungs and determining the correct location of organs during development -- move in mysterious ways.

The microscopic, hair-like structures called cilia act like the engines of cellular biology. They use a coordinated wave motion to propel bacteria, clean out your lungs and even move eggs from the ...

Magnetic cilia – artificial hairs whose movement is powered by embedded magnetic particles – have been around for a while, and are of interest for applications in soft robotics, transporting objects ...

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to the function of motile cilia, the hair-like structures extending from the ...
