José Martínez-Hernández, an Ikerbasque researcher in the Neuronal Ubiquitin Pathways group in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of the UPV/EHU's Faculty of Science and Technology, ...

Viral infection induces cytoskeleton remodeling into cage-like structure. Virus infection can cause severe rearrangement of the cytoskeleton, and all three kinds of cytoskeleton form a cage-like ...

Researchers have discovered that septins -- a part of the cytoskeleton -- form a barrier to the penetration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The process is dependent on the LecA molecule on the surface of ...

The cytoskeleton serves as the structural framework of the cell, providing support, shape, and organization to cellular machinery. Composed of three classical cytoskeletal filament types, including ...

The cytoskeleton is far more than a static scaffold—it’s a dynamic, adaptable network that shapes cells, moves cargo, and drives vital processes. From swirling cytoplasmic flows to microtubule ...

Dysfunctions and malformations in the scaffold of a cell are thought to contribute to heart muscle weakness, neurodegenerative disease and even deafness. Now biophysics research at The University of ...

The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells contains an elaborate filamentous protein meshwork — the cytoskeleton — which comprises three distinct but integrated fibrous polymers: filamentous actin (F-actin; ...

Your cells aren’t just tiny blobs—they have an internal skeleton that keeps them in shape, moves things around, and even helps them adapt to change. This cytoskeleton is a dynamic network of filaments ...

A researcher at the UPV/EHU-University of the Basque Country has participated in the study into the impairment of the dynamics of spines that receive information from other neurons A researcher at the ...

A research team led by Potsdam-based bioinformatician Prof. Dr. Zoran Nikoloski has developed a computational approach and an accompanying tool that enables the detailed analysis and reconstruction of ...

The rearrangement of the cell´s inner scaffold, the cytoskeleton, is a vital process for immune cells. In a new collaborative study, a rare inherited disease revealed a hitherto unknown role of a ...

Prof. Michael Murrell's group (lead author Zachary Gao Sun, graduate student in physics) in collaboration with Prof. Garegin Papoian's group from the University of Maryland at College Park has found ...
