Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered ...

A further understanding of the organelle could pave the way for better treatment of genetic and neurodegenerative diseases.

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells. Researchers at RPTU have now investigated the detailed effects of such imbalances ...

University of Virginia scientists discover new cell organelle called "hemifusome" that helps manage cellular recycling.

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and UCL have shown that genetic messages are misplaced in nerve cells in a model of Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. These messages mostly ...

The immunological synapse formed between a natural killer cell and its target cell facilitates the coordinated and directional delivery of lytic granules to the cell–cell interface. Jordan ...

The mRNA metabolism passively shapes the levels of an mRNA modification called m6A within a steady-state cell and upon stress.

New research by Sumeda Nandadasa, PhD, reveals how a key protein associated with Meckel-Gruber syndrome, nephronophthisis, ...
