Cell membranes protect and organize cells. All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike ...

Researchers describe a natural product-like molecule, Tantalosin, that inhibits interaction between two proteins in complexes that reshape membranes inside the cell. The findings lead to a deeper ...

Cells constantly navigate a dynamic environment, facing ever-changing conditions and challenges. But how do cells swiftly adapt to these environmental fluctuations? A new study is answering that ...

This is a building block principle we will refer back to over and over again. The cell membrane is like the ‘skin’ of a cell. It separates everything inside the cell from everything outside.

In a study published in PNAS, Umeå researchers describe a natural product-like molecule, Tantalosin, that inhibits ...
