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 ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

Researchers at the University of Geneva have developed a technique that enables visualization of cellular organelles at a resolution that has not previously been achievable in optical microscopy.

In a new study, researchers have succeeded in creating artificial cell organelles and using them for their own devised biochemical reactions. Cells of higher organisms use cell organelles to separate ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — The interior of a human cell consists, in part, of a complex soup of millions of molecules. One way these biological compounds stay organized is through membrane-less organelles (MLOs) ...

For the first time, researchers have directly visualized how newly formed cellular organelles leave the endoplasmic reticulum ...

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 ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have shown that nutrient availability and organelle biology affect the development of tissue-resident memory T cells. “We are excited to introduce a ...

Improvements in public health have allowed humankind to survive to older ages than ever before, but, for many people, these ...
