The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a compartment (organelle) in eukaryotic cells that consists of membrane sacs called cisternae. Because of the bound ribosomes, the 'rough' ER is the site of ...

Organelles are entities within a eukaryotic cell that have a specialised function. Examples of organelles include the nucleus, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi, mitochondria, vacuoles or ...

However, our knowledge of scaling relationships among organelles is lacking. To investigate this, the researchers used ‘rainbow yeast’, a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that expresses fluorescent ...

A new study uncovers the long-elusive mechanism of inhalational anesthetics by identifying the RyR1 calcium channel as a key molecular target.

They aimed to validate a role for mitochondrial dynamics in modulating chromosomal segregation, mitochondrial inheritance and embryo development and achieve this through the examination of ...

This article makes a valuable contribution to the field by uncovering a molecular mechanism for miRNA intracellular retention, mediated by the interaction of PCBP2, SYNCRIP, and specific miRNA motifs.

Genetically encoded sensors based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) are powerful tools for quantifying and visualizing analytes in living cells, and when targeted to organelles have the ...

Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1), a metallopeptidase belonging to the M1 peptidase family, plays an important role in antigen processing in vivo. Additionally, many diseases are caused ...
