For years, Dan Nicolau Sr., head of bioengineering at McGill University in Montreal, has studied the movement of cytoskeletal proteins, which help give cells their structure. Around 2002 ...

making it a unique cytoskeletal polymer," Adam said. "Other members of the intermediate filament protein family may also be formed by phase separation." Building on this discovery, Adam and his ...

This specialized cytoskeletal structure is located below the cell membrane and consists of numerous proteins in a periodic arrangement. The MPS is involved in various cellular processes ...

In recent years, bacterial cells have been shown to be spatially organized by localized protein complexes and dynamic cytoskeletal filaments. Localized protein complexes are frequently based on ...

Neural stem cells developed unique "ring" structures made of protein filaments—a cytoskeletal feature not previously seen in single neural stem cells. Without any other chemical cues ...
