Prof. Michael Murrell's group (lead author Zachary Gao Sun, graduate student in physics) in collaboration with Prof. Garegin Papoian's group from the University of Maryland at College Park has found ...

A research team at Kumamoto University has developed a deep learning-based method for analyzing the cytoskeleton—the structural framework inside cells—more accurately and efficiently than ever before.

Researchers have built a synthetic-cell platform that can be chemically adjusted in real time, sidestepping a long-standing ...

Researchers developed GraFT, a computational tool that maps and tracks actin filaments over time, enabling precise analysis ...

Cells are characterized to be stable yet highly flexible. They constantly modify their shape and even move through tissue. These vital properties are based on a dynamically organized network of ...

A microscopic image shows small red centers connected by networks of branched and straight filaments. The team mixed purified actin monomers with precise concentrations of two nucleation-promoting ...

BACKGROUND: Despite antiplatelet therapy, some patients remain at high ischemic risk because of drug nonresponsiveness or high residual platelet reactivity). We aimed to target an orphan platelet GPCR ...

A research team led by Potsdam-based bioinformatician Prof. Dr Zoran Nikoloski has developed a computational approach and an accompanying tool that enables the detailed analysis and reconstruction of ...

The discovery opens the door to healthier aging in humans. The cytoskeleton provides most cells with their shape, structure, and internal organization. In turn, the cytoskeleton relies on a type of ...
