Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little "organs" ...

The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts and packages proteins to be sent to their final destinations, whether that's within or outside of the cell.

The Human Cell Atlas project maps human cells to understand biology, address global health disparities, and advance ...

Cyanobacteria, an ancient lineage of bacteria that perform photosynthesis, have been found to regulate their genes using the ...

Membraneless organelles, also called biomolecular condensates, are changing how scientists think about protein chemistry, ...

Researchers investigating ways to reduce exhaustion in cancer-fighting T-cells found that the Golgi apparatus can be used as a simple marker -- more Golgi means a more robust cell.

Dynamic, reversible modifications of DNA and RNA regulate how genes are expressed and transcribed, which can influence ...

Cell biology is the discipline of biological sciences ... Age-related thymic involution compromises immune function, which leaves older adults more vulnerable to infections and to a potentially ...

Advances in cell and molecular biology have catapulted our understanding of the science of life from the basic understanding of how cells and the components of cells interact within living organisms.

Nov. 22, 2024 — Geneticists have developed a gene drive-based solution to the widespread problem of insecticide resistance. In an effort to protect valuable crops, the researchers created an 'e ...

Selenoproteins are crucial for several biological functions, including the breakdown of harmful substances, immune system support, and regulating metabolic processes. However, in specific contexts ...

New advances allow scientists to study DNA, RNA, and gene activity in individual cells rather than in bulk tissue samples.
