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

Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be static, now revealed to be dynamic engines of cellular life. As they probe ...

A new study by Rice University researchers led by Jason Hafner could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future ...

MBL, WOODS HOLE, MA -- Scientists have discovered that cells use a very simple phase transition -- similar to water vapor condensing into dew -- to assemble and localize subcellular structures that ...

Volvox parent spheroid: Numerous individual cells can be seen across the entire surface as magenta-colored dots. Developing daughter spheroids appear as a few larger clusters with very small dots. The ...

A study could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future research on diseases linked to membrane organization. A new ...
