From middle school biology we were always taught that the nucleus is the “control center” of the cell, similar to how the brain is the control center of our own bodies. At first glance this makes a ...

Engineered fluorescent nanobodies that work inside living cells can label multiple proteins in different colors at once, ...

Cells are the smallest unit of life and the building blocks for all organisms. Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell ...

The cell nucleus goes a long way during an immune response, both literally and figuratively. New research published in Science Immunology shows that in some white blood cells, this genetic storage ...

When cells experience sudden physical stress, like stretching or pressure, they can activate a fast, protective mechanism ...
