Researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich have developed a novel method to track cancer ...

The membrane-bound organelle appears to play a huge role in helping cells sort, discard, and recycle their contents. It's ...

Breakthroughs in microscopy are illuminating organelle interactions, providing critical insights into cellular processes and ...

Specialized magnetic beads that bind target proteins to a cryogenic electron microscopy grid make it possible to study the structure of protein complexes from dilute samples.

Nanoparticulate electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction are structurally diverse materials. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has long been the go-to tool to obtain ...

Cell membranes play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and functionality of cells. However, the mechanisms by which ...

Low-pressure environments are generally unfavorable for microbes, since these conditions will cause the water in cells to evaporate, deforming their structure.

The molecule can then be tracked under an ordinary – albeit very high-resolution – optical microscope. Cryo-ET uses electron microscopes to study flash-frozen samples, like cells.
