During cell division, adherent animal cells round up to create the precise spatial geometry required for accurate chromosome ...

Membrane depolarization promotes extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation and cell proliferation via phosphatidylserine dynamics.

When three bright minds from different disciplines come together, something exceptional can happen. This is exactly what Prof. Patricia Hidalgo, Dr. Beatrix Santiago-Schübel, and Dr. Mercedes ...

Phase separation is a mechanism for non-organellar macromolecule segregation typical in the cell cytosol and nucleus. Two recent studies revealed functional phase separation within the endoplasmic ...

Electrostatic forces play a pivotal part in calcium-induced phase separation of PDIA6 to form quality control granules, which suppress proinsulin amyloid-like aggregation and ensure correct proinsulin ...
