Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

A collaborative study from the University of Cologne has uncovered how a key mitochondrial protein, AIFM1 (Apoptosis-Inducing ...

Concurrent with the recognition of the importance of mitochondria in apoptosis, has been the application of electron microscope tomography, a form of three-dimensional transmission electron ...

Mitochondria are the powerhouses in our cells, producing the energy for all vital processes. Using cryo-electron tomography, researchers at the University of Basel, Switzerland, have now gained ...

Researchers at the University of Cologne have identified the key mitochondrial protein AIFM1 as a central coordinator of ...

In a new study published in Nature on May 29, researchers developed a novel imaging approach by integrating two microscopy techniques—single-particle analysis and cryo-electron tomography (cryo ...

Parts of the current study's data were generated using a new cryo-electron microscope installed at IST Austria only in fall 2018 and are the first to be published using one of three new machines ...

The MRC scientists have now been able to visualise the structure of the MPC at the atomic scale using cryo-electron microscopy, a technique used to magnify an image of an object to around 165,000 ...

By using scanning electron microscopy, the researchers constructed three-dimensional images of the placental cells and the mitochondria they contained. Now, said Lewis, “We've got this gap where the ...
