Using a novel method that gives a readout of which proteins are in specific locations within cells, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have identified a protein that plays a key role in cell ...

The UPV/EHU researcher Ildefonso Martínez de la Fuente has led an exhaustive analysis of the locomotion trajectories of 700 individual cells using advanced scientific techniques to demonstrate that ...

Inside every living cell, tiny molecular machines are constantly in motion, shifting shapes, tugging on membranes and ...

A protein that helps generate the force needed for single cells to move works differently in cells moving in groups, a new study shows. A protein that helps generate the force needed for single cells ...

Senior co-corresponding author M. Madan Babu, PhD, FRS, St. Jude Senior Vice President of Data Science and Center of Excellence for Data-Driven Discovery director, Department of Structural Biology and ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, a group of researchers explained why ion entry is necessary for T cell migration by investigating the role of With No Lysine (K) 1 (WNK1) kinase ...

Imagine cells navigating through a complex maze, guided by chemical signals and the physical landscape of their environment. A team of researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC ...

Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move. Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical ...

Pictured here is a group of cells moving toward its correct final position in the tail of a forming zebrafish embryo. Cell membranes are green and the cell nuclei red. A protein that helps generate ...
