A research team has succeeded in synthesizing simple, environmentally sensitive cells complete with artificial organelles. For the first time, the researchers have also been able to emulate ...
Within the sender cells are nanocontainers—essentially artificial organelles—whose membranes contain special light-sensitive molecules known as molecular motors.
Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...
We describe here a novel method of lysing blue–green algal cells, the isolation of their intact gas vesicles and a preliminary investigation into the composition of the gas vesicle membrane.
Researchers propose a new mathematical definition of death based on whether a potentially dead cell can return to a predefined 'representative state of living,' which are the states of being that ...

You've got a lot to consider when searching for the best cell phone plan, whether it's what kind of coverage you can expect or what kind of perks come with your plan. But the main question I wind ...
The disease gets its name because when you have SCD, your red blood cells look like a sickle, which is a C-shaped farm tool. Normal red blood cells are round and pliable. With sickle cell ...
Cells: Once the cells quality control mechanism is activated, IRGQ (red) accumulates in special cell organelles, the lsysosomes (green). This is also where the degradation of the non-functional ...
A precancerous cell is a cell with certain abnormalities that makes it more likely to become cancerous. These abnormalities don't mean that it will become cancer—in fact, most don't—but the diagnosis ...
