A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...

Scientists use a multimodal approach that combines hard X-ray computed tomography and X-ray fluorescence imaging to see the structure and chemical processes inside of a single cell. Every plant, ...

Scientists have uncovered details of the protective layer that surrounds the fine protrusions of cells. Biological cells often possess thin, hair-like protrusions on their surface known as cilia, ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, a large team of researchers from the United States (U.S.) used single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing combined with high-resolution ...

A project at Rice University has developed a novel approach to nanoscale cellular imaging, one that could lead to improved knowledge of subcellular structures. Reported in Nature Communications, the ...

Prior to using this narrative, have learners create their own model of a cell in their notebooks using whatever background information or experience they might have. While exploring the narrative, ...

The design of synthetic developmental programs for multicellular mammalian systems is a cornerstone of synthetic biology. The programs hinge on the construction of gene regulatory circuits that ...

The story of the cell cycle is often told only through the perspective of the chromosomes as they replicate and then divide. This resource beautifully illustrates the role of the cytoskeleton in that ...

The dual-phase interpenetrating architecture was came out from the microstructure of natural materials. Based on the such unique structure, bioinspired P/CCSs was designed and fabricated via 3D ...
