Viral membrane proteins are the proteins of choice in vaccines but are difficult to produce quickly and reliably for use in vaccines, limiting rapid response during emerging outbreaks. Researchers ...

Our bodies are made up of countless cells, and each one is enclosed by a thin layer called the cell membrane. This membrane is not a rigid wall, but a soft, flexible sheet made of lipids. Beneath it ...

Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...
