Eukaryotic cells form the foundation of complex, multicellular life, including apple trees, mushrooms, fish and humans. Their defining feature is the presence of membrane-bound organelles, ...

Here, we have developed a method to insert LT-scFv into the membranes of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells rapidly and efficiently (Fig. 1). Purified LT-scFvs are brought into contact with cells ...

To coordinate the mass of moving parts, eukaryotic cells evolved membrane-bound organelles and other subcellular compartments that gather protein networks together in controlled environments ...

Archaea, like bacteria, are single-celled organisms—but genetically, the two domains differ in significant ways, particularly in their cell membranes and metabolic systems. As research ...

The standard model for biochemical signaling involves ions moving across cells or membranes, generating spikes in an electrochemical ... could be functioning as quantum fiber optics that allow ...

An international collaboration has published groundbreaking research, shedding light on the most significant increase in complexity in the history of life's evolution on Earth: the origin of the ...

The eukaryotic cell, the most significant increase in complexity in the history of life's evolution on Earth, emerged as a phase transition and unlocked the path toward other major transitions ...

Scientists have uncovered more than 20 genes whose mutations cause familial forms of Parkinson's disease. One of these genes ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute, King's College London and the University of Fribourg have developed polymer water ...
