Biologists have long treated cell membranes as passive barriers, thin skins that separate the chemistry of life from the ...
While our cells are performing some important, basic functions, they can generate compounds known as reactive oxygen species ...
New evidence of electrical power generation on cell membranes could offer insights into how living cells interact with their ...
Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...
Cell membrane integrity is vital for the survival and function of tissues across biological systems. The rapid repair of membrane disruptions is mediated by specialised mechanisms that mobilise ...
The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.
Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...
Allan Albig receives funding from the National Institute of Health. Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside ...
At the recent ELRIG Drug Discovery conference, Technology Networks<i/> spoke with Dr. Kundan Sharma to learn more about how cell-free expression platforms are transforming membrane protein research.
Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...
