Harvard scientists studying the molecular structure of cells under obesity-related stress have spotted alterations in the architecture that can be patched up, with "striking" results that restore ...

At the heart of our cells, a previously unknown structure has just been identified, shedding new light on essential biological mechanisms. This discovery could transform our understanding of ...

How does the collective interaction of many individual cells create a perfectly formed organism? This question is the focus of a new study.

Researchers have found a new, dynamic protein structure in cells. Every cell contains millions of protein molecules. Some of them have the ability to phase-separate to form non-membrane-bound ...

Where the heck did all those structures inside complex cells come from? There are competing theories about the origin of the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum.

Scientists has illuminated the functions of mysterious structures in cells called 'nuclear speckles,' showing that they can work in partnership with a key protein to enhance the ...

A new class of drugs combining artificial DNA structures with antibodies could make immunotherapies more targeted—all you have to do is fold.

Bangkok — Scientists have developed human embryo-like structures without using sperm, an egg or fertilization, offering hope for research on miscarriage and birth defects but also raising fresh ...
