RNA is usually portrayed as a molecule that works deep inside the cell, helping to turn genetic information into proteins. But new research led by Utrecht University scientist Jack Li shows that RNA ...

Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...

Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...

Schematic of an active cell membrane. In a typical active biological process, active proteins (shown in a variety of colors) in a cell membrane (shown in blue) interact with various biological ...

Biologists have long treated cell membranes as passive barriers, thin skins that separate the chemistry of life from the ...
