Cell membranes from comb jellies reveal a new kind of adaptation to the deep sea: curvy lipids that conform to an ideal shape ...

"The fact that our epigenetic clock trained on cheek cells predicts mortality when measuring the methylome in blood cells suggests there are common mortality signals across tissues," said Shokhirev.

The new technique is a second-generation clock that, as the name suggests, uses easy-to-access cells from inside the cheek to quantify molecular aging. “We also demonstrate that specific methylation ...

Prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, but they have no internal membrane-bound organelles within their cytoplasm. The absence of a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles ...

The electronics weren’t hard, but custom membrane keypads are hard to come by. No matter, because it’s actually pretty easy to build your own. Membrane switches are usually made with ...

For instance, the nucleus stores genetic material, and mitochondria produce energy. Another essential part of a cell is the ...

A plasma membrane is permeable to specific molecules that a cell needs. Transport proteins in the cell membrane allow for selective passage of specific molecules from the external environment.

What is a pregnancy sweep? A pregnancy sweep is what your midwife or doctor will call a membrane sweep or a cervical sweep.

A study led by Professor Petia Vlahovska showed that dissipation within the membrane controls the undulation dynamics of highly curved membranes.

Oct. 24, 2024 — A new study conducted in roundworms finds that a common plastic ingredient causes breaks in DNA strands, resulting in egg cells with the wrong number ...
