Inside every cell are lipid molecules that make up cellular membranes, helping organelles communicate and respond to stress.
The Tol-Pal complex maintains bacterial outer membrane (OM) stability by regulating lipid homeostasis. (Left) In Gram-negative bacteria, the OM acts as a protective barrier, blocking entry of harmful ...
Membrane insertion of Dyngo-4a results in a dynamin-independent inhibition of caveola dynamics, revealing that outer leaflet lipid packing in the plasma membrane contributes to the confinement of ...
A set of new imaging tools now allows researchers to see how specific fat molecules, called phospholipids, are distributed across cell membranes in three dimensions and at nanometer-scale precision.
What if the mechanical properties of a cell could be programmed like the components of a machine? Researchers at the ...
The formation of supramolecular polymers within living cells is an emerging strategy for regulating cellular functions, and ...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the portion of the cell responsible for manufacturing and folding proteins. Proteins are essential for a wide range of cellular functions-as enzymes, transporters, ...
