Molecular arrangement and conformation of lipids of relevance to membrane structure / S. Abrahamsson, B. Dahlén, H. Löfgren, I. Pascher and S. Sundell -- Energy conservation by proton transport ...

Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...

Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...

Membrane proteins and membrane lipids are essential partners in various biological processes, and elucidating their ...

A study could open new pathways for understanding how cholesterol influences cell membranes and their receptors, paving the way for future research on diseases linked to membrane organization. A new ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical energy through constant motion in their membranes, offering a fresh way to think ...

Transverse tubules (T-tubules) play a significant role in muscle contraction. However, the underlying mechanism of their ...

Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...

The chemical reactions on which life depends need a place to happen. That place is the cell. All the things which biology recognises as indisputably alive are either cells or conglomerations of cells ...
