Protein folding helpers such as TRiC and prefoldin (PFD) are crucial for the correct folding of many essential proteins. In a Nature study, researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry ...

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 a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), researchers at the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Texas A&M Health) identify a novel RNA ...

As we age, our cells don’t just wear down—they reorganize. Researchers found that cells actively remodel a key structure called the endoplasmic reticulum, reducing protein-producing regions while ...

Osteocytes, the most abundant cells in bone tissue, have long been underestimated in their functional capacity. Traditionally viewed as passive entities, recent research has illuminated their pivotal ...

Cells shrink a major internal structure as they age. New research shows this downsizing is deliberate—and linked to longer ...

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

Cilia are evolutionarily conserved, microtubule-based organelles that project from the surface of most eukaryotic cells and play a central role in sensing ...

Cellular findings show Telomir-Zn modulates intracellular metal balance linked to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, DNA methylation instability, and genomic integrity-without relying on ...

Biocomputing research is testing living neurons for computation as scientists look for energy-efficient alternatives to ...

Wolfgang Epstein, professor emeritus of molecular genetics and cell biology and a frontier researcher in molecular genetics, ...

Deep-learning model decodes the regulatory effects of DNA changes ...
