Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be ...

Improving our understanding of the impact obesity has on individual cells could go a long way to preventing some of its deleterious downstream effects, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Researchers have optimized a special X-ray process -- known as soft X-ray tomography -- to deliver high-resolution three-dimensional images of entire cells and their molecular structure in just a few ...

To function correctly, cellular proteins depend not only on their complex tertiary and quaternary structures, but also on their proximity to and interactions with other molecules participating in the ...

Our bodies are made up of countless cells, and each one is enclosed by a thin layer called the cell membrane. This membrane ...

Researchers have found a new, dynamic protein structure in cells. Every cell contains millions of protein molecules. Some of them have the ability to phase-separate to form non-membrane-bound ...

Cell division is one of the most thoroughly studied processes in biology, yet many of its details remain mysterious. A century-old puzzle surrounding the "crown" of cell division—the kinetochore ...

A new discovery inside your cells may change how scientists understand disease and design future treatments. Researchers have ...
