A study focusing on analyzing cell models found universality in their movement—an important discovery that could impact both ...

Cell-free systems, which can express an easily detectable protein with a DNA or mRNA template without constraints of living ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

Our skin and mucous membranes are protected by epithelial cells. This 'barrier' tissue performs its function thanks to specialized structures called 'junctions'. They ensure cell cohesion and regulate ...

Researchers use light stimuli to shape cells and develop a model that explains the mechanisms – with implications for synthetic biology.

Cells constantly shift and transform, triggering the complex choreography that shapes living organisms. Whether dividing into new cells or sculpting an embryo, these tiny movements rely on chemical ...

Advanced techniques are allowing scientists to witness the process where plant cells generate cellulose fibers.

Researchers from the University of Colorado Cancer Center have solved a cellular mystery that may lead to better therapies ...

NYU scientists have discovered that cancer cells work together to withstand challenging conditions, revealing new ...
