A set of new imaging tools now allows researchers to see how specific fat molecules, called phospholipids, are distributed ...

Biological membranes of cells and their subunits (organelles) are organized into tiny regions (nanodomains) made up of fats ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have built a computer simulation that tracks the entire life cycle ...

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life reconstructions ever created. Using computer technology, scientists have ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows membrane (green cubes), and ribosomes (yellow/purple) ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...

Scientists have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating ...

X-Cell generalizes to new biological contexts and breaks barriers as the first scaling law demonstrator in the virtual cell domain.

Nanoparticles built from red blood cell membranes and loaded with a sound-sensitive dye kill liver cancer cells when ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed that cells use a previously unknown feat of molecular craftsmanship ...
