Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are created and how their ...

Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes.

Understanding how roots grow can help us develop plants that—for example—are more resistant to drought. Research by Prof.

A Japanese team has developed a technique to insert chloroplasts isolated from algae into animal cells, a feat that could ...

The Würzburg plant scientists were right: when they inhibited calcium storage in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cell, the calcium transient and the subsequent reaction failed to materialise.

The peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms a continuous, dynamic network of tubules that plays an important role in ...

Research on organic solar cells has been conducted for a long time. Recent advancements in understanding their molecular ...

Aside from being seem as "alien" material, the chloroplasts themselves struggle to function in the environment of an animal cell. "Almost all algae and plant species photosynthesize under 30 ...

Molecules released from pathogens are recognised by plant cell surface receptors, and trigger specific signalling cascades that help to defend the plant against attack. Lee et al. discovered two ...

A genetic regulator of tomato sweetness has been identified through comparison of wild and domesticated varieties of the plant. Genetically engineering tomatoes to alter this gene increases sugar ...

Here’s how it works. There's a lot of things to consider when searching for the best cell phone plan, from coverage to perks. But when I'm evaluating plans, the question I ultimately ask myself ...
