Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which ...

The work tests and revises a 50-year old textbook model, known as the Bloch hypothesis, for the evolution of sterol metabolism in eukaryotic cells. The results indicate that the complexity of sterol ...

Researchers observe how fluctuations in ovarian hormones shape the structure and function in the mouse hippocampus, with ...

While effective, these medications can cause uncomfortable side effects like stomach upset, yeast infections ... as they bind ...

Among the major classes of RNAs in the cell, tRNAs remain the most difficult to characterize via deep sequencing approaches, as tRNA structure and nucleotide modifications can each interfere with cDNA ...

Importantly, under glucose starvation conditions, the TDA1 deletion mutant shows increased expression of respiration-related genes and a faster growth rate compared to wild-type cells, which is ...

Organelle structure is controlled by regulatory ... Figure 2: View of the ER and Golgi in yeast and animal cells. Figure 5: Golgi biogenesis and inheritance in yeast and protozoa.

Before cells divide, they replicate the ... Research Centre to show computationally that the yeast protein complexes formed a similar structure to human complexes. The researchers were then ...

All cells are surrounded by a cell membrane ... Ergosterol, on the other hand, is a sterol found in yeast that is similar in structure to 7-DHC. When oxidized, it also forms endoperoxides.
