Biologists have long treated cell membranes as passive barriers, thin skins that separate the chemistry of life from the ...

In addition to providing energy, lipids are also essential building blocks of our cell membranes. However, despite their ...

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

Membranes are constantly bending as a result of heat fluctuating randomly through the cell. In theory, any voltage produced ...

Flexoelectricity, which can transform mechanical deformation into electrical signals, could provide enough power to fire ...

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

At the recent ELRIG Drug Discovery conference, Technology Networks<i/> spoke with Dr. Kundan Sharma to learn more about how cell-free expression platforms are transforming membrane protein research.

Scientists at Stanford University have uncovered a novel physical mechanism that breast cancer cells use to break out and become invasive. They observed that in addition to established chemical ...
