Researchers mapped mitochondrial proteins in a plant and five pathogens. Comparisons revealed diverse mitochondrial functions, supported a late evolutionary origin and identified pathogen-specific ...

Researchers have built a catalog of mitochondrial proteins found in six eukaryotic organisms — five parasites and one plant — ...

The Intracellular Quality Control Project at the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science has identified a molecular ...

How can AI be used to improve drug discovery and delivery? This is what two recent studies published in Cell hopes to address ...

Mitochondria supply cells with energy, and they also play an important role in metabolism. The Institute of Biochemistry and ...

Mitochondria - tiny structures that convert nutrients into energy - are often depicted as discrete kidney bean-shaped objects. But in reality, they form a dynamic, interconnected network throughout ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which motor neurons are gradually lost, ...

Inside every living cell, mitochondria do far more than burn sugar for energy. These organelles act as sentinels, sensing ...

A research team led by Bo Song of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology has released a preprint claiming to ...

A well-fitted ‘disguise’ allows transplanted mitochondria to slip into cells whose own mitochondria are defective, scientists reported on 18 March in Cell 1. Administration of these cloaked ...

Inside every plant cell, mitochondria do far more than burn sugar. They trade metabolites with the rest of the cell through a ...
