Some of these amphiphiles can form bilayers, trapping a droplet of liquid inside, even if the outside is also more of the ...

Molecular vibrations, when paired with near-infrared (NIR) light, have opened a new chapter in cancer treatment. Instead of ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have solved a 60-year-old mystery in bacterial cell envelope ...

Some types of cancer cells appear to use some ciliary molecules so that instead of performing their normal functions, they begin to promote tumor formation and growth by activating biochemical ...

SLC35B1 transports ATP into the ER, and its structure offers potential for targeted therapies in diseases linked to ER stress. A team of scientists has solved a long-standing question in cell biology ...

Lipid bilayers in mammalian membranes can have a more asymmetric composition than previously thought, new research shows. This lipid abundance asymmetry is enabled by the unique properties of ...

Doubling down on metasurfaces: Bilayer device can control many forms of polarized light by Anne J. Manning, Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences ...

The researchers also applied their self-assembled bilayer to inverted PSCs to explore how it affected their performance. Their findings were very promising, as introducing these films resulted in good ...

The details of the cell technology can be found in the paper “ Self-assembled bilayer for perovskite solar cells with improved tolerance against thermal stresses,” published in n ature energy.

An ambitious project launched in 2016 has made a dent in one of biology’s greatest challenges — with more than 3,600 researchers profiling more than 100 million cells.

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about , those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example ...

Billions of years of evolution have made modern cells incredibly complex. Inside cells are small compartments called organelles that perform specific functions essential for the cell’s survival and ...
