Some of the body's cells stay put for life, while others are free to roam. To move, these migratory cells rely on ...

Scientists reveal how filopodia help cancer spread. The breakthrough could improve treatments that stop cancer cells from ...

In all eukaryotic cells, actin protein assembles to form a network of thin filaments that spread throughout the cell. The actin filaments give the cell its structure, enable the cell to move, and ...

Actin proteins group together to form a network of thin filaments that spread throughout a cell. This actin network is dynamic, meaning that the filaments can either grow or shrink to fit the ...

In trials, POSTECH applied its system to photoacoustic images of human cardiac fibroblasts, and compared the results to ...

This DD-AcGPF1-actin fusion was only stable in the presence of Shield1 (Fig. 3). The ProteoTuner system makes it possible to change the amount of a protein of interest rapidly, so it is possible ...

The interaction of myosin and actin proteins is at the core of our current understanding of sarcomere shortening. How does this shortening happen? It has something to do with a sliding interaction ...

Can a protein involved in delivering Vitamin D to target tissues have an altered serum profile in psoriasis patients with ...

It also included a protein that Daniel Safer from Penn's Perelman School of Medicine—who has an extensive background with ...
