Cellular membranes not only constitute a barrier, but they also accommodate a plethora of different molecules for sensing and ...

A new study describes how active and passive exchange of cellular material controls the formation of membrane clusters.

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...

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 ...

In a pioneering discovery, researchers at UNIST have captured, for the first time, the elusive intermediate stages involved in the pairing of cell membrane proteins. Contrary to long-held beliefs that ...

Why do cells age—and why do we lose our energy and vitality as we get older? This question is one of the central challenges ...
