Cells degrade components that are no longer needed through autophagy. New results show that a weak molecular interaction is essential for this process. By modifying this interaction, it is possible to ...
Just like your body has a skeleton, every cell in your body has a skeleton—a cytoskeleton to be precise. This provides cells ...
The centromere of chromosomes plays a crucial role in cell division. Using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, an ...
The genetic cause for the most common type of hearing loss in children with Down syndrome has been identified in mice by ...
A simple prototype cell sorter has grown over time to incorporate technological advances that make it an even more indispensable tool for understanding biology and disease states ...
Throughout our lives, our bones are continuously remodeled to maintain strength, repair injuries and adapt to new stresses.
This cell would have the capability to accurately represent and simulate how human biomolecules, cells, and ultimately, tissues and organs behave. “Modeling human cells can be considered the holy ...

The second wave of Apple Intelligence features is imminent, and it’s a huge upgrade—including for Apple Notes users. iOS 18 already packed a strong Notes update, but iOS 18.2 adds to that ...
The SWItch/Sucrose Non-Fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex is divided into three subcomplexes: cBAF, PBAF, and ncBAF. Constituent genes (e.g., SMARCB1, SMARCA4, SMARCA2, and SS18) of ...
