About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it activates other proteins involved in this process. Plk1 is also ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose -- a major constituent of all plant cell walls -- a team has captured images of the microscopic process of cell-wall building continuously over ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose—a major constituent of all plant cell walls—a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers have captured images of the microscopic ...

Advanced techniques are allowing scientists to witness the process where plant cells generate cellulose fibers.

“Plant protein has been shown in randomized controlled trials to be as effective as animal protein for building muscle when the amounts of protein are equal,” Dr. Roxanne Becker from PCRM said in a ...

Photons filter down through the atmosphere and are eagerly absorbed by light-powered organisms such as plants and algae ... and how quickly, for a cell’s photosynthetic machinery to process ...

Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the bridging neurons that connect the retinal input to the visual processing centres within the central nervous system. There is a remarkable diversity of RGCs and ...

The data presented here provide a high-resolution insight into predicting TF targets and offer a new application for single-cell RNA sequencing in plants. Owing to the emergence of scRNA-seq and its ...
