Researchers from A*STAR’s Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) have found an innovative approach to sequencing single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) to study the roles of RNA structure in individual cells ...
Scientists use a multimodal approach that combines hard X-ray computed tomography and X-ray fluorescence imaging to see the structure and chemical processes inside of a single cell. Every plant, ...
When oil is dropped in water, the oil droplets stay separate. Cells can also use a system like this to separate or gather materials, encouraging various reactions and processes to occur. Scientists ...
An important cellular structure called the nuclear pore complex (NPC) has larger dimensions than previously thought. A research team made this discovery using cryo-focused ion beam (cryo-FIB) milling ...
Cryo-electron tomography shows what molecules look like in high-resolution – in this case, the virus that causes COVID-19. Nanographics, CC BY-SA All life is made up of cells several magnitudes ...
