Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

The largest study to date of most common form of testicular cancer has uncovered a possible link between disease risk and variations in the genes controlling cell shape and movement. By investigating ...

In recent years, the subcellular organization of prokaryotic cells has become ... a surge of research on the mechanisms that structure the bacterial cell (Box 1). Among the many proteins with ...

which cells use to coordinate responses to stimuli. These molecules move through the ER’s elaborate structure, and Koslover, who studies transport in cells from a physics perspective, wanted to ...

Structural studies of membrane proteins historically have relied almost exclusively on first removing membrane proteins from the membrane with dispersive agents like detergents. But dispersive agents ...
