Feb. 17, 2022 Researchers have used molecular modelling methods to investigate the movement of nano-sized plastics in membrane structures. The results indicate that for some microplastics, passive transport ...
June 15, 2021 E. coli adapt to survive sudden starvation. Biologists showed that when E. coli cells lack nutrients, the cytoplasm becomes more dense as its volume decreases, probably because of water loss. At the ...
Jan. 31, 2023 Physicists have shown how fluid flows influence the formation of complex ...
June 15, 2022 The process that allows bacteria to expand and grow while maintaining the strength of the cell walls has been identified as offering a potential new target for ...
May 19, 2023 Biophysicists have designed a new cell-like transport system that represents an important milestone on the road to artificial ...
Aug. 10, 2023 Plants orient their organs in response to the gravity vector, with roots growing towards gravity and shoots growing in the opposite direction. The movement of statoliths responding to the inclination ...
Mar. 26, 2021 Scientists have revealed molecular mechanisms involved in eliminating unwanted cells in the body. A nuclear protein fragment released into the cytoplasm activates a plasma membrane protein to display ...
Oct. 25, 2021 The sharpest images ever of living bacteria have been recorded by researchers, revealing the complex architecture of the protective layer that surrounds many bacteria and makes them harder to be ...
Mar. 22, 2022 New technology will accelerate drug development by allowing researchers a better look inside the cell membrane to observe how cells react to ...
Sep. 17, 2021 A multi-disciplinary team has discovered and characterized a new mechanism that a simple yeast cell uses to acquire its ...
