The capability to sort single cells of interest and to deeply characterize them has greatly added to our understanding of biology and disease states. Indeed, cell sorting has become an indispensable ...

Mentor: Carole Dabney-Smith, Ph.D. Cyanobacteria are model organisms to study protein sorting and transport because of the presence of both the thylakoid and plasma membranes. This experiment ...

Scientists have revealed the secret to the structural integrity of tiny particles that transport cargo from cell to cell through blood vessels and bodily fluids: special proteins that keep their ...

This illustration shows how the membrane trafficking protein VAMP72 gradually changed during plant evolution to give rise to VAMP727, which functions in transporting storage proteins to vacuoles. The ...

Fluidic Sciences Ltd, a leader in in‑solution protein interaction analysis, today announced it has purchased the business and assets of Sphere Bio Ltd. The transaction creates a powerful, ...

A research team has revealed the molecular steps that led to the emergence of this plant-specific vacuolar transport system. Their work shows that the acquisition of this pathway was driven by the ...
