Cytoskeletal active matter describes novel synthetic materials made up of mixtures of cytoskeletal filaments and molecular motors. By consuming chemical fuel, the molecular motors can bind to and ...

The neuronal cytoskeleton is functionally specialized within distinct compartments; local differences in cytoskeletal organization regulate local traffic patterns. In axons, the axon initial ...

中国科学院上海巴斯德研究所酒亚明课题组在PNAS上，发表了题为Host cytoskeletal vimentin serves as a structural organizer and an RNA-binding protein regulator to facilitate ...

急性髓系白血病（AML）是一种由造血干/祖细胞遗传异常引发的血液系统恶性肿瘤，其致病因素主要包括染色体易位和基因突变 ...

"Vimentin appears to be able to utilize phase separation at all stages of polymer formation, making it a unique cytoskeletal polymer," Adam said. "Other members of the intermediate filament ...

Even cellular components need good roads to travel along. This image shows key components of the cytoskeletal road map labeled in red, blue, and green. Even cellular components need good roads to ...

The Derr lab pursues the biophysical, biochemical, and cell biological mechanisms of the cytoskeletal molecular motors dynein and kinesin. The group studies these molecular machines in two ways: 1) at ...

Different cytoskeletal systems do not function in isolation, but collaborate with each other in cells. Post-doctoral researcher Yaming Jiu working at the Institute of Biotechnology, University of ...

This structure of protein filaments makes the cells stable, stretchable and resistant to external forces. In this context, "intermediate filaments" play an important role. Interestingly, two ...

Many of our academics speak to the media as experts in their field of research. If you are a journalist, please contact the University’s Media and PR Team: Research in our lab aims to understand the ...
