For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

Inside cells, RNAs and proteins form tiny, liquid-like droplets called biomolecular condensates. These droplets are essential for organizing cellular life, yet why some RNAs cluster more readily than ...

An international team led by researchers from the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has used advanced ...

A cluster of recent studies has sharpened the scientific picture of how T cells switch on, tracking the molecular signals ...

This is a top-down cross-section of one of the 3D hollow spheres (lumenoids) that our cells can create. The different colors are for different proteins, which allows you to see some striking ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

Scientists recorded 24 hours of the cellular construction process, revealing surprising new details about how plant cell ...
