The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.

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

Our cells may literally ripple with electricity, acting as a hidden power supply that could help transport materials or even ...

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

Scientists have uncovered a surprising viral shortcut that turns moving cells into delivery vehicles for infection. Instead of spreading one virus at a time, infected cells bundle viral material into ...

We have been taught to think of cholesterol as something that clogs arteries, spikes lab reports and comes with dietary guilt ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

Researchers have developed a theoretical framework that shows how living cell membranes can generate electricity from molecular fluctuations. The work is published in the journal PNAS Nexus.

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein synthesis right at the start.

Scientists created safer weight loss chemicals that make cells burn more calories without dangerous side effects.

Inside your cells, mitochondria keep you alive by turning food into usable energy. Researchers from the University of ...
