Cell membranes protect and organize cells. All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike ...

诺贝尔奖委员会于本周一（北京时间）宣布，将 2024 年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖授予维克多·安布罗斯（Victor Ambros）和加里·鲁夫昆（Gary Ruvkun），以表彰他们在微小 RNA（microRNA）及其在“基因沉默”功能方面的发现。图 ...

The team also found that changes in the tension of the cell's plasma membrane might help activate the Tmem63b/Slc19a2 complex ...

"GSDMD NTD inserts into the plasma membrane, i.e. the outermost membrane of the cell, as we already suspected, but not initially into the mitochondria, as postulated elsewhere," says Prof.

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

(1) Most QWERTY computer keyboards use a single rubber-like membrane underneath the keys that makes contact with a circuit board when the key is fully depressed. Also called a "dome switch ...

Researchers meticulously examined the gametogenesis of budding yeast, a process involving meiosis and spore formation, using live imaging techniques. Their findings revealed that during sporulation, ...

Sexual reproduction, a common mode of reproduction among numerous species, involves gametogenesis in which offspring are ...

Delivery to the sides of the cell is well understood ... that most of their bulk resides within or outside of the plasma membrane and not inside the cell—de Caestecker hypothesized that proteins ...

Reaction engineering principles are employed to develop a one-dimensional differential PEM fuel cell suitable for elucidating the dynamic performance of PEM cells under well-defined conditions.
