Just like your body has a skeleton, every cell in your body has a skeleton—a cytoskeleton to be precise. This provides cells ...

For example, the cell membrane is not directly visible, while the nucleus can be inferred by the stained DNA found in that organelle. Have students compare the photos with diagrams of the cytoskeleton ...

The artificial cytoskeleton developed in this study mimics natural functions, enhancing mechanical stability and membrane ...

The story of the cell cycle is often told only through the perspective of the chromosomes as they replicate and then divide. This resource beautifully illustrates the role of the cytoskeleton in that ...

The cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells is made of filamentous proteins, and it provides mechanical support to the cell and its cytoplasmic constituents. All cytoskeletons consist of three major ...

The cytoskeleton is involved in all main functions of immune cells related to the response to infection. Studies of the cytoskeletal proteome can vastly contribute to our understanding of ...

Structures inside cells influence everything from individual cell movement to an organism’s metabolism. They include the cytoskeleton, a dynamic internal protein network that gives cells their shape ...

In our lab, we aim to elucidate the interplay of clathrin structures with the actin cytoskeleton and cellular adhesions ... approach combining state-of-the-art techniques in cell biology, biochemistry ...

Proteomics Approaches to Analysis of the Cytoskeleton in Immune Cells Cytoskeletal proteins are often identified in many proteomic studies either as contaminants, owing to their very high ...
