Movement signals life, and nowhere is this truer than inside a living cell. The millions of proteins and molecules within each of our cells bend, travel and conform in a complex but orchestrated ...

A mechanism of dynein-powered metastatic locomotion has been identified using soft tissue models, revealing a new clinical target for breast cancer treatment. New research led by Penn State (PA, USA) ...

Researchers capture first-of-its-kind video of dynein–Lis1 protein interaction, supporting future drug development for neurological disorders. Our cells rely on microscopic highways and specialized ...

The cell cytoskeleton is modulated by motor proteins, known as dyneins, that generate force and movement on microtubules to control a wealth of biological processes, including motility, cell division, ...

Researchers have uncovered the mechanism by which a protein facilitates the spread of breast cancer cells from the primary tumor into healthy tissue. The discovery not only improves our understanding ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Interphase Xenopus egg extracts form extensive tubular membrane networks in vitro. These networks are identified here as endoplasmic reticulum ...

The most lethal feature of any cancer is metastasis, the spread of cancer cells throughout the body. New research reveals the mechanics behind how breast cancer cells may invade healthy tissues. The ...
