In a landmark simulation, scientists have recreated the full cell cycle of a living cell in four dimensions — three ...

Researchers describe a natural product-like molecule, Tantalosin, that inhibits interaction between two proteins in complexes that reshape membranes inside the cell. The findings lead to a deeper ...

Now, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), have discovered that Src also appears like a flag on the surface of bladder, colorectal, breast, pancreatic, and probably many ...

In the evolutionary history of life, the ability of a cell to separate its inner world from the external environment was an ...

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...

For five decades, scientists have known about a notorious cancer-causing enzyme called SRC. But they always assumed it only ...

How flu viruses enter cells has been directly observed thanks to a new microscopy technique with the potential to revolutionize research on membrane biology, virus–host interactions and drug discovery ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. The bottom of the ocean is cold, dark, and under extreme pressure. It is not a place suited to the physiology of us surface dwellers: At ...
