President Donald Trump signed a trio of resolutions ending electric vehicle mandates that originated in California and have since been embraced by more than a dozen other states.
Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin.
Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...
In a discovery three decades in the making, scientists at Rutgers and Brookhaven National Laboratory have acquired detailed ...
Politicians in South Carolina say the move is in response to the 'potential discontinuation' of US EV incentives.
A new study from North Carolina State University shows a reproducible way of studying cellular communication among varied types of plant cells by "bioprinting" these cells via a 3D printer.
Oct. 31, 2024 — Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are ...
But it has an important role within complex plant and animal cells, processing and packaging proteins and lipids, before they’re transported to other parts of the cell or secreted. It was a ...
Traffic lights signal to cars and buses when to stop, slow and go. Much like traffic lights, plant cells send signals to each other to perform photosynthesis to grow or fight off destructive viruses ...
Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria are four cell components that are found ...
A recent study has established a method to print viable plant cells using a 3D printer. Researchers at North Carolina State University (NC, USA) have developed a method to 3D print various types of ...
The image sequences provide new insights into how this cell structure forms, which could lead to innovations in plant-derived products such as renewable biofuels. Cell walls are made mostly of ...
