Ten structures of URAT1 obtained by scientists provide a deep understanding of the mechanism of urate transport to guide gout therapeutic design. Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital ...

The secretory pathway in eukaryotic cells is crucial for maintaining cellular function and physiological activities, as it ensures the accurate transport of proteins to specific subcellular locations ...

TTUHSC’s Lan Guan, M.D., Ph.D., recently received a five-year, $1.96 million MIRA R35 grant (“An integrated approach to understanding the molecular mechanisms of cation-coupled transport”). To help ...

When cells experience enough chronic stress, they can stop dividing permanently. In this state of cellular limbo, known as replicative senescence, cells remain alive but no longer proliferate.

New technique to image single lipids: Lipids are notoriously difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, the Dresden team has overcome this limitation, enabling ...

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) are emerging as pivotal technologies for a low-carbon energy system, offering a rare ability to both generate electricity and ...
