Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth.

Picture a living cell as if it were a city. If you were the urban planner for this (very little, very alive) city, one of the ...

Our cells carry out hundreds of thousands of important functions every day, all of which are carefully orchestrated at a ...

It has recently become clear just how important membraneless organelles are for cells. Now biochemists at ETH Zurich have discovered a novel mechanism that regulates the formation of these organelles.

New research may help to explain an intriguing phenomenon inside human cells: how wall-less liquid organelles are able to coexist as separate entities instead of just merging together. These ...

Organelles in cells were originally often independent cells, which were incorporated by host cells and lost their independence in the course of evolution. A team of biologists headed by Professor ...

Jan. 20 (UPI) --Researchers from the University of Exeter in England have discovered how two specific cell organelles work together to produce specific lipids. Cell organelles are the functional ...

Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

The first 3D map of mitochondria in the human brain has been created, revealing how brain energy influences cognitive aging.

But a recent discovery upends that rule. In two recent papers, an international team of scientists describe the first known nitrogen-fixing organelle within a eukaryotic cell. The organelle is the ...
