Researchers systematically surveyed the entire protein landscape of normal and nutrient-deprived cells to identify which proteins and organelles are degraded by autophagy. The idea of the cell as a ...

Research conducted by Toyohashi University of Technology in collaboration with Tohoku University elucidated the fusion process of proteoliposomes with an artificial lipid bilayer and the mechanism ...

The structure of the cell, and its components, have largely been explored through methods such as protein fluorescent imaging and protein biophysical association. Now, researchers have combined ...

The newly described microbe represents a world of parasitic, intercellular biodiversity only beginning to be revealed by ...

Autophagy is a fundamental cellular process by which cells capture and degrade their own dysfunctional or superfluous components for degradation and recycling. Recent research has revealed that phase ...

Researchers collaborating on a BRAIN Initiative project unveiled the most comprehensive map of developing mammalian brains to ...

Not all fat is the same. Researchers are learning more about how fat stored in different parts of the body can have different impacts on health. They compared fat cells taken from under the skin with ...
