Centromeres, specialized regions located at the center of chromosomes, are critical for ensuring proper cell division. During ...

These fundamental findings offer a novel mechanism by which rubrerythrin tubules encapsulate encapsulin to prevent oxidative stress in Pyrococcus furiosus. However, there are a few reasonable concerns ...

The connections between brain cells have been mapped with unprecedented molecular resolution using a new light-microscopy ...

Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

Imagine drawing on something as delicate as a living cell -- without damaging it. Researchers have made this groundbreaking discovery using an unexpected combination of tools: frozen ethanol, electron ...

Health officials are making a renewed call for vigilance against bird flu, but some experts are puzzling over why reports of ...

The reported cryo-EM imaging of a pentameric ligand-gated ion channel in liposomes as opposed to nanodiscs has both broad implications and contributes valuable methodological advances to the ...

Each octopus arm has its own dense network of neurons, up to 350 million across all eight arms, that can work without the brain.

Instead, they used neural style transfer (NST) – a deep learning technique – to copy the unique noise patterns from real electron microscope images and apply them to synthetic data. This new ...
