A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.240035 discusses multiplexed stimulated emission depletion nanoscopy for multi-color live-cell long-term imaging. In the field of ...

Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted. "We know each of the proteins ...

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to the function of motile cilia, the hair-like structures extending from the ...

Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...

Researchers at EPFL have created CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that selectively labels centrioles and cilia in living cells across species. The tool enables unprecedented live imaging without genetic ...

Proteins are most well-known for their intricate structures. The α-helices and β-sheets that form from interactions between sidechains create distinct shapes that, along with the specific amino acid ...

Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be static, now revealed to be dynamic engines of cellular life. As they probe ...
