Ambitious projects aim to put dire wolves, woolly mammoths and passenger pigeons back into our ecosystems. But with so many ...

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells.

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells. Researchers at RPTU have now investigated the detailed effects of such ...

This study reveals the step-wise establishment of nuclear speckle-associated domains (SPADs) during mouse embryogenesis.

Therefore, if Drp1 is depleted at the 2-cell or 4-cell stage, chromosome segregation errors may be less frequent. However, since unequal partitioning of mitochondria is thought to occur, some ...

A newly found organelle, the hemifusome, helps manage cellular recycling. It may play a role in inherited diseases and open ...

The membrane-bound organelle appears to play a huge role in helping cells sort, discard, and recycle their contents. It's ...

An international research team has uncovered a surprising way compartments within cells work together to defend themselves ...

A new organelle has been found by scientists at the University of Virginia (UVA). The super-small specialized structure has a role recycling material inside our cells, and its discovery could lead ...

The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited diseases. The organelle, a type of specialized structure, has been dubbed a ...

If measured from beginning to end, the DNA in our cells is too long to fit into the cell’s nucleus, explaining why it must be ...

Mitochondria are organelles found in the cells of most eukaryotic organisms, including animals, plants, and fungi, whose cells contain a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
