Microtubules perform an active role in communication within the cell by transmitting received signals to the cell's functional units. Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI and the Department ...

The most diverse functions of a cell in the human body – from cell division and differentiation to motility and programmed cell death – are controlled by signaling proteins within the cell. This ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

cases an external molecule dramatically affects cellular function. Our goal in studying any of these processes is the same: a molecule-by-molecule accounting of information transfer in biological ...

This paper describes the isolation, cloning, and molecular characterization of a receptor molecule for calcium ions located on the outer surface of certain types of cells. The reason it has received ...

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev have identified a protein that plays a central role in enabling aggressive ...

Uveitis, which accounts for 10%–15% of blindness cases in developed nations and 25% in developing regions, represents a ...
