Before a cell can divide, it has to precisely duplicate its entire genetic information. However, the DNA in the cell exists ...

In new research, scientists at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, in collaboration with ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

A KAIST research team has solved the "solar cell dilemma," in which increasing efficiency shortens lifespan, while extending ...

Velia Fowler (standing), chair of the Department of Biological Sciences and pioneering researcher in the architecture of cells, examines F-actin and other proteins in the structure of red blood cells ...

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 ...

A study could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future research on diseases linked to membrane organization. A new ...
