Direct evidence that microtubules function as mechano-sensors and regulate the intracellular transport of molecules has been reported, leading to new possibilities in the fields of biomechanics, ...
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Neuroscientists at the University at Buffalo have shown in two recently published papers that destabilization of structures called microtubules, intracellular highways that transport ...
Like poles support a tent, microtubules - hollow cylindrical structures made of tubulin protein - support eukaryotic cells. But microtubules provide more than just mechanical strength; they help ...
Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be ...
New findings shed light on how chromosomes manage the various pushing and pulling forces generated when cells divide. Specifically, researchers show that chromosomes resist being punctured by the ...
A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...
Cell division is one of the most thoroughly studied processes in biology, yet many of its details remain mysterious. A ...
Simple LEGO bricks can be assembled to more complicated structures, which can be further associated into a wide variety of complex architectures, from automobiles, rockets, and ships to gigantic ...
A protein known as MPS1 helps to ensure that a key process during cell division of oocytes—unfertilized egg cells—occurs in a ...
