Plants are under constant stress due to pathogens, heat, or other environmental factors. Proteins can become damaged as a result and cell function is thrown off balance. Researchers at Ruhr University ...

When activated by its target, the newly characterized molecule rips the genome apart, a lethal move that researchers can ...

Starving yeast cells create a protective barrier in mitochondria that could reveal how cancer survives and resists treatment ...

Syracuse University scientists learned how a flexible, reshaping protein creates temporary sorting and storing centers in stressed cells to potentially protect their health. A companion study found ...

Scientists at Durham University, working in partnership with Jagiellonian University in Poland, have developed a new ...

Structures called desmosomes connect cells to each other and transfer mechanical stress. They are especially important in tissues under continual mechanical stress, such as heart muscle (pictured).

T cells are crucial components of our immune system, serving as critical protectors against infection and disease.
