One of the most striking features of eukaryotic cells is their capacity to change shape in response to environmental or intrinsic cues driven primarily by their actomyosin cytoskeleton. During gross ...

In a study that may guide drug design, researchers find organelles encounter varying levels of resistance, depending on their size and speed, as they move through a cell's cytoplasm. Under a ...

Small protein molecules almost do not experience the cytoplasm viscosity while moving within the cell. Scientists have now shown that the effect can be described universally to include ...

The inside of a cell is packed with stuff; from big organelles to small molecules, the cytoplasm is the suspension which contains all those components. Researchers at MIT wanted to know more about how ...

Over the past decade, there have been scattered reports of mammalian cells’ own DNA being found in the cytoplasm, mainly in the context of disease and aging. While it is not unusual to find DNA from ...

After fixation and treatment with uranyl acetate solutions, the refractive index ($n_{{\rm D}}$) of the cytoplasm of Corynebacterium bovis varies with substrate ...

Forty years ago, a postdoctoral researcher named James McGrath who would go on to spend more than three decades as a clinical geneticist and research scientist at Yale, made a discovery that advanced ...
