Researchers at Nagoya University developed a phosphonic acid polymer with hydrophobic spacers for fuel cell electrolytes, ...

They created a cell with a minimal, adaptable membrane, offering a unique platform to study how lipid complexity evolved and how it can be engineered for synthetic life. Their findings are ...

A new fuel cell electrolyte design using phosphonic acid polymers with hydrocarbon spacers allows efficient operation under ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

E. coli with engineered cell membranes have enhanced catalysis capabilities which reduce energy use and make production more sustainable.

Researchers have developed a light-induced gene therapy that targets the mitochondria of cancer cells, triggering cell death.

A research team led by Professor Hwang Ho-sik of the Catholic University of Korea's Yeouido St. Mary's Eye Hospital has ...

"But having both a bilayer-forming lipid, which provides the basic structure for the cell membrane, and a non-bilayer-forming lipid, such as cholesterol, which adds stability, seems to be a ...
