However, thanks to the state-of-the-art cryo-electron microscopes, the researchers have now been able to gain new insights into the interaction between Vipp1 and the cell membrane.

Light and electron microscopy have distinct limitations. Light microscopy makes it difficult to resolve smaller and smaller features, and electron microscopy resolves small structures, but samples ...

Scientists in Basel revealed that energy-producing proteins in mitochondria form large supercomplexes, boosting ATP ...

Cells take up solid particles using a process called endocytosis. How did scientists use viruses to learn about endocytic functions in cells? Aa Aa Aa Viruses are the smallest microorganisms in ...

Mitochondria are the powerhouses in our cells, producing the energy for all vital processes. Using cryo-electron tomography, researchers have now gained insight into the architecture of mitochondria ...
