Cells aren’t as passive as scientists once thought—they actively create internal currents to move proteins quickly and ...

Researchers at Aarhus University have developed a microscopic DNA needle that can deliver molecules directly into cells—and, ...

Even after decades of peering into cells, biologists are still finding surprises. In a twist, researchers at the University of Virginia and the National Institutes of Health uncovered a new organelle, ...

A new imaging approach is shedding light on one of cell biology’s most elusive questions: how lipids are organized and sorted within membranes.

A new study published in PRX Life has identified hidden structural patterns inside the flow of living cells that appear to ...

Most of us are used to hearing about 3D printing in factories or in makerspaces, not inside the tiniest units of the human body. Yet that is exactly what a team in Slovenia has done by using a ...

DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...
