Vaults are mysterious cellular structures that can be genetically engineered to store information about a cell’s history.

In a groundbreaking fusion of biology and technology, scientists have successfully 3D printed a tiny elephant inside a living cell. This remarkable feat not only showcases the potential of 3D printing ...

A DNA nano-harvester stays on its track inside tumor cells, measuring cancer aggressiveness by detecting a key microRNA ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Conceptual illustration of the bidirectional quantitative scattering microscope, which detects both forward and backward scattered ...

A cell nucleus reconstituted in vitro in Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog) egg extract. Left image shows a fluorescence image where DNA has been stained and right image shows a density map of the ...

Researchers developed a new machine learning method that, given a relevant amino acid sequence, can automatically predict the location of a protein in any human cell line down to the single-cell level ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature. Chromosomes are thread-like structures that carry a cell's ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...

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 ...
