Cells compartmentalize biochemical reactions not only in membrane-bounded organelles, but also through the formation of droplet-like macromolecular condensates. Condensates arise through a process ...

Cells in humans and all vertebrates are tightly packed together to form organs and glands — tissues essential for living, breathing and moving. The narrow spaces between cells represent natural weak ...

Scientists found that messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules that carry genetic instructions to the far reaches of neurons in the brain tend to cluster together mostly because they are abundant, not because ...

Cells in humans and all vertebrates are tightly packed together to form organs and glands — tissues essential for living, breathing and moving. “In humans, three families of membrane proteins in ...

Scientists have long known that the cells' "protein destruction machine," the proteasome, plays a crucial role in protein clearance within the brain. However, a new study published in Science has ...
