Water deficit resistance in plants has long been a topic of interest for cultivating reliable crops. Some plants can alter their above-ground structure to lock in moisture, while others develop deep, ...

Dr. Shannon Iselin, ND   Subheadline How metabolomic assessment of oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, and nutrient ...

The Chemical Biology of Microbes and Membrane Proteins Lab is driven by a fundamental interest in how proteins function at the molecular level. The team seeks to establish quantitative ...

Plant developmental biology is witnessing rapid advances in understanding the roles of cytoskeletal interactions in shaping growth, morphology, and ...

B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) occurs when abnormal B cells accumulate in the bone marrow and blood. This crowds out healthy blood cells and weakens the body’s ability to fight infections.

Chicks were never supposed to hatch from plastic. Yet inside the Dallas laboratories of Colossal Biosciences, chicken embryos ...

Cells are enveloped by a lipid membrane that gives them structure and provides a barrier between the cell and its environment. However, evidence has recently emerged suggesting that these membranes do ...

Fuel cells are considered a key technology for a climate-neutral energy supply. One particularly important type is the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). These devices convert hydrogen into ...

A clump of human brain cells can play the classic computer game Doom. While its performance is not up to par with humans, experts say it brings biological computers a step closer to useful real-world ...

Cell membranes are dynamic structures that protect cells while constantly adapting to environmental change. For years, their behavior seemed to contradict basic physical laws linking structure and ...

Cells may generate their own electrical signals through microscopic membrane motions. Researchers show that active molecular processes can create voltage spikes similar to those used by neurons. These ...
