“The whole point of condensates is to separate biological reactions to help them work efficiently, but now when you have ...

Autophagy, the cell's essential housekeeping process, involves degrading and recycling damaged organelles, proteins, and ...

Researchers have discovered proteins with emulsifying action that can be readily released from yeast cell walls. One of them exhibited emulsifying activity comparable to that of casein ...

Smaller nucleoli slow aging, acting as a "mortality timer," while larger nucleoli lead to cell death by destabilizing rDNA. The secret to cellular youth may lie in maintaining a small nucleolus—a ...

This is a useful study that adds new data to how different DAG pools influence cellular signaling, and dissects how the enzyme Dip2 modulates the minor lipid signaling DAG pool, which is distinct from ...

To test this idea, they engineered an artificial way to secure rDNA to the membrane surrounding the nucleus of yeast cells so they could control when it was anchored and when it was not.
