In eukaryotic cells, which are found in complex organisms including humans, little membrane-bound organelles carry out various functions. It's been suggested that these organelles, which all have ...

Findings from a new University of Cincinnati study have reshaped the fundamental understanding of how a certain cell ...

Organelles – the bits and pieces of RNA and protein within a cell – play important roles in human health and disease, such as maintaining homeostasis, regulating growth and aging, and generating ...

The interactions within and between the organelles inside our cells could hold the key to understanding complex diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration. Recent advances in imaging techniques are ...

Jeffrey Moore lab studies how the microtubule network organizes the contents within cells and how problems can cause diseases ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a method for controlling the phase separation of an emerging class of proteins to create artificial membrane-less organelles within human ...

Cells use compartments known as organelles to sequester molecules or reactions as a way to control many biochemical processes. Scientists would like to do the same by engineering synthetic organelles ...

For the first time, researchers have directly visualized how newly formed cellular organelles leave the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and transition onto microtubule tracks inside living cells. This new ...

New research shows the use of a new cellular probe helped discover new findings about certain cellular processes. Collaborative research at the University of Cincinnati has developed a new probe to ...
