A Scripps team has adapted advanced imaging and computation to measure cell membrane thickness inside intact animal and yeast ...

Biological processes that govern our lives are many, intertwined, and often difficult to understand. They involve countless ...

Cell membranes cradle, protect, and gatekeep living cells. Membranes can even affect how a cell behaves. But membranes’ own erratic behavior has puzzled scientists for years. Turns out, it’s all about ...

Schematic of an active cell membrane. In a typical active biological process, active proteins (shown in a variety of colors) in a cell membrane (shown in blue) interact with various biological ...

We established that Onsager’s principle of reciprocity is violated for the cell model of an ion–exchange membrane —the coupled cross kinetic coefficients are not equal. It is crucial when considering ...
