Dynamin is a protein that plays a central role in endocytosis—the process where cells internalize substances by wrapping them ...

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have identified a protein that causes human cell membranes to break open in a ...

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ...

Cell membrane chromatography (CMC) is an innovative bioaffinity technique that utilises immobilised cell membranes to replicate the native configuration and function of membrane proteins. This ...

We know that the process of viral uptake into cells begins with interactions between proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase ...

Scientists at Stanford University have uncovered a novel physical mechanism that breast cancer cells use to break out and become invasive. They observed that in addition to established chemical ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...

A new Dartmouth study opens new avenues for understanding—and potentially manipulating—how cells decide to live or die.

In breast cancer cells, the scientists found an abundant amount of glycolytic enzymes on the cells' membrane, and that the molecules moved in organized waves. In normal cells, the scientists observed ...

Scientists have captured a never-before-seen, high-resolution look at influenza’s stealthy invasion of human cells, revealing ...

In several disease conditions, including infections and cancers, innate immune activation and nutrient scarcity occur together.
