Researchers at UC Merced used fruit flies to uncover a cellular process common to many organisms that could dramatically impact the understanding of cancer and aging. Department of Molecular and Cell ...

14-3-3 proteins are a highly conserved family of regulatory molecules that occupy a central position in cellular signalling networks by interacting with a diverse range of client proteins. These ...

Now, in a study published March 30 in Cell Chemical Biology, UB scientists have shed light on one such stressor, showing that ...

This video of a so-called HeLa cell dividing demonstrates how sensitive the cell division process is. While all is going well at the beginning of the video, as the clip nears its end you can see the ...

A group of Australian scientists has uncovered a new way to fight some of the toughest cancers by targeting an overlooked cellular process called minor splicing. This tiny but vital mechanism turns ...

Researchers at Clemson University and the Medical University of South Carolina report that their latest study sheds new light on how the body handles cholesterol at the cellular level. According to ...

A new study from WashU Medicine identifies a previously unknown way that cells purge waste in a process that helps them revert to a stem cell-like state to promote healing after injury. Here, three ...

Now, in a recently published Journal of Cell Biology paper, scientists used a newer electron microscopy technique, called volume electron microscopy (vEM), to examine how primary cilia on developing ...
