Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that the "pacemaker" controlling yeast cell division lies inside the ...

In a study that may guide drug design, researchers find organelles encounter varying levels of resistance, depending on their size and speed, as they move through a cell's cytoplasm.

Earlier this year, Ambati’s team uncovered an important clue. Surprisingly, in cultured human retinal pigmented epithelium cells, they found that DNA copies of Alu can occur in the cell cytoplasm—in ...

The cytoplasm is the largest part of the cell by volume and hence its rheology sets the rate at which cellular shape changes can occur. Recent experimental evidence suggests that cytoplasmic ...

Different classes of RNA molecules are synthesized in the eukaryotic nucleus and are exported through nuclear pore complexes to the cytoplasm by mobile export receptors. Small RNAs follow ...

Inching along, a DNA-preserving mechanism can ultimately defeat the transposon, a danger that jumps. This mechanism is part of a larger process through which tiny pieces of RNA protect ...

Worn-out proteins, malfunctioning organelles, invading microorganisms: all are swept up by tiny internal "vacuum cleaners" that keep a living cell healthy. If the process, called autophagy, can be ...

Back in 2018, the lab of Christine Mayr, MD, PhD, at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) introduced the world to a key cellular component that had been hiding in plain sight.
