Membrane trafficking is the process by which ... Here, the authors develop a biomimetic model of dividing cells to characterize the cytoskeleton’s mechanical power prior to division.

The researchers then investigated whether cytoskeleton reorganization affected cell membrane stiffness, since substrate stiffness increases platelet adhesion. Using atomic force microscopy ...

Although each organelle has a different function, they are similar in that every one is wrapped up in a membrane. Membrane-bound organelles were the textbook standard of how scientists thought ...

This will extend the usefulness of our antibiotics. Anne also works to improve science teaching. The molecular chaperone CCT and the cytoskeleton: understanding the interplay between the folding of ...

Adhesion junction is crucial for the stability of the epithelial lateral membrane and the maintenance ... connecting adhesion molecules to the cytoskeleton. In addition, E-cadherin can also ...

"We were inspired by several models of the dynamics between the internal cytoskeleton of a red blood cell, the cell membrane, and the environment," explained Nicoletti. "By studying these models ...

Yet, rapid detection of LMMPs (1–10 μm) at the single-particle level within complex freshwater matrices remains a hurdle. We developed an adaptable plasmonic membrane sensor for fast detection of ...

Hydrogen: Breakthrough in alkaline membrane electrolyzers Date: October 28, 2024 Source: Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie Summary: A team has developed a highly efficient ...
