Nature Methods - Methods to label proteins with carbon nanotubes permit the study of intracellular movement at different timescales. Skip to main content Thank you for visiting nature.com.
Intracellular movement is the movement of structures (like organelles) within the cell. It is distinguished from transcellular and paracellular movement, which pertain to transport across a ...
A new study shows that lipid droplets in the leaves contain plant proteins such as different myosin binding proteins involved in intracellular movement, and several enzymes responsible for furan ...
Movement of mTORC1 observed for the first time in live cells Date: October 11, 2016 Source: Babraham Institute, The Summary: What do proteins and wild bears have in common?
Biophysical chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered a previously hidden landscape that governs the intracellular organization and dynamics of SWI/SNF chromatin ...
The tissue in our body can only hold together if the cells adhere not only to each other, but also to extracellular ...
A bigger challenge has been to monitor a protein’s life cycle—its intracellular movements and its turnover—which requires a timer to indicate a protein’s age. Earlier iterations of fluorescent timers ...
Different mutations in the progranulin gene affect either the intracellular movement or the export of the growth factor progranulin, though how this leads to the formation of the ubiquitinated ...
A team of scientists led by Elaine Bearer of Brown University are the first to observe and record the movement of the herpes simplex virus within a living a nerve cell. The research was performed ...
The Biochemistry faculty has a wide range of research interests from cell biology to molecular biophysics. Primary faculty have their main affiliation with the Department of Biochemistry and are based ...
Just like tagging wild animals aims to allow researchers to observe and track their natural behaviour, molecular researchers use tags to track the minute movements of proteins in cells.
