Each of these organelles performs a specific function critical to the cell's survival. Moreover, nearly all eukaryotic organelles are separated from the rest of the cellular space by a membrane ...

The table below list organelles, their function and the types of cell that they can be found in. Can you fill in the blanks to complete the table? Cell structure Description Function Cell type ...

Alongside organelles such as mitochondria and Golgi apparatuses, membraneless structures help compartmentalize the cytoplasm, as well as the interior of the nucleus. In contrast to organelles with a ...

This makes it difficult to distinguish the function of the components inside the organelles versus those outside. Additionally, these photobodies only form in the light. Chen spent two decades ...

The Jokitalo group studies structure-function interplay of organelles in mammalian cells. Our main model organelle is the endoplasmic reticulum. We employ a wide range of basic biological techniques ...

The primary cilium has gone from being an oddity, with no known function, to an organelle that is at the center of our understanding of both fundamental cell sensory processes and a variety of ...

New research, published recently in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, uncovers the unique dynamics governing the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)’s evolution and addresses the long-standing ...

In particular, we are interested in pathogen’s disturbance of host organelle function and inter-organellar communication in host cells in plant innate immunity. Our understanding of the involvements ...

Mitochondria are cell organelles with important functions in cell metabolism, signalling and energy conversion. Proper organisation and folding of mitochondrial membranes are vital for organelle ...
