In such cells, the plasma membrane is part of an extensive endomembrane system that includes the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the nuclear membrane, the Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes. Membrane ...

Like a mosaic, the cell membrane is a complex structure made up of many different parts, such as proteins, phospholipids, and cholesterol. The relative amounts of these components vary from ...

And then you'll have a model plant cell with all of its parts. A cell wall, which keeps everything together, cell membrane, which surrounds the cytoplasm, vacuole, the space within the cytoplasm ...

Cytoskeleton rearrangements promote formation of a giant structure called a GUVac that stops cells from dying when they become detached from the extracellular matrix.

Glycoproteins typically bind to receptors on the membrane of a host cell. Viruses that do not bud from the host cell membrane do not have an envelope, so they are called “naked” or ...

Using the principles of bottom-up synthetic biology, researchers can now reintroduce different parts of the lipidome ... A tuneable minimal cell membrane reveals that two lipid species suffice ...
