Inspired by the jets of water that squids use to propel themselves through the ocean, an MIT-led team has developed an ...

In this potentially valuable computational study, the authors conducted atomistic and coarse-grained simulations to probe the temperature-dependent phase behaviors of ELF3, a disordered component of ...

By combining biochemistry and cell biology, the authors show that the proteins talin and vinculin control actin assembly, thus reinforcing the anchoring of actin to FAs. An approach combining ...

Nov. 14, 2024 — An international research team has uncovered a new mechanism crucial to the production of cellular proteins. When this mechanism is disrupted, the blueprints used by the cell to ...

Nov. 19, 2024 — A speed record has been broken using nanoscience, which could lead to a host of new advances, including improved battery charging, biosensing, soft robotics and neuromorphic ...
