This latest clue about the architecture of consciousness supports a Nobel-Prize winner’s theory about how quantum physics ...

Microtubules are the largest type of filament, with a diameter of about 25 nanometers (nm), and they are composed of a protein called tubulin. Actin filaments are the smallest type, with a ...

Microtubules are major components of the cytoskeleton. They are found in all eukaryotic cells, and they are involved in mitosis, cell motility, intracellular transport, and maintenance of cell shape.

Among other winners of the Nikon Small World in Motion competition are videos of a fruit fly embryo and of water droplets ...

For the researchers Angela Hay and Gabriella Mosca, the results also raise further questions. "We want to understand how microtubules reorient in a coordinated switch during pod growth. The explosive ...

This is a great time to introduce the three categories of cytoskeletal components: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Each of these helps maintain cell structure and function ...

Plant and animal cells are both extremely important to the survival of millions of species and without them, life couldn’t ...

From a baby tardigrade riding a nematode, to water droplets evaporating from the wing scales of a peacock butterfly, the ...

In addition to the cement, water, gravel and sand that constitutes nearly all concrete, researchers have experimented with ...
