Cilia are outgrowths of the plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells that contain a specialised cytoskeleton. Motile cilia are present on multiciliated cells and use this cytoskeleton to move fluid ...

Mitosis orchestrates eukaryotic cell division, maintaining genetic fidelity and playing a key role in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer progression.

A typical eukaryotic cell is 30–50 μM in size ... is to understand what happens in a cell when it moves. Imaging the cytoskeleton proteins, for example, during cell migration on 2D surfaces ...

Indeed, across multiple eukaryotic lineages, species that have flagella tend ... “and that’s controlled by the cytoskeleton.” ...

Signaling molecules and interactions, such as cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interactions, cellular community-eukaryotes (focal adhesion), and actin cytoskeleton ...

Cells are constantly on the move, whether in a developing embryo or metastatic cancer. But how do cells adapt to the new ...

Every living organism falls into one of two groups: eukaryotes or prokaryotes, with cellular structure determining which group an organism belongs to. Prokaryotes are unicellular and lack a nucleus ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

This important study characterizes the mechanics and stability of bolalipids from archaeal membranes using molecular dynamics simulations. A mesoscale model of bolalipids is presented and evaluated ...

Genetic material DNA in a nucleus, plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional DNA is found on one or more rings ...

Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative, microaerophilic bacterium that colonizes the gastric mucus overlying the epithelium of the stomach in more than 50% of the world’s population. This ...
