F.-U. Hartl, W. Neupert, "Protein sorting to mitochondria: evolutionary conservations of folding and assembly," Science, 247:930-38, 1990. Franz-Ulrich Hartl (University of Munich, Germany): "In this ...

A new study from Aarhus University shows that our cells' ability to clean out old protein clumps, known as aggregates, also includes a—up till now unknown—partnership with an engine that breaks down ...

In yeast, sorting nexins and the core retromer form a single complex that functions in endosome-to-Golgi retrograde transport. In contrast, our findings demonstrate that in plants, SNX and the core ...

To isolate specific cell populations, researchers frequently employ fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). While this flow cytometry-based technique analyzes the cells’ fluorescence, it cannot ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Barbie Wang, Maria Giebler, Adrian Freeman, Karen Hogg, Adam Corrigan and Hitesh Sanganee. This poster is being hosted on this website in its ...

An electromagnetic device can gently sort cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a ...

Keeping a qubit stable is difficult enough, even in an ideal environment. Now, researchers have figured out how to make a protein behave like a qubit in a living cell. Fluorescent proteins were used ...
