Astronomers have uncovered a vast, razor-thin strand of galaxies that is not just drifting through space but spinning ...

Scientists have discovered a giant cosmic filament where galaxies spin in sync with the structure that holds them together.

An international team of astrophysicists has discovered hundreds of mysterious structures in the center of the Milky Way galaxy. These one-dimensional cosmic threads are hundreds of horizontal or ...

The cryogenic electron microscope structure of the A4p-activated (green) CalpL protein filament (violet) from Candidatus Cloacimonas acidaminovorans (PDB ID: 9EYJ). CRISPR-Cas systems help to protect ...

Researchers discover how outside stimuli drive the formation and reorganization of the cytoskeleton in the nucleus of mammalian cells. They play a leading role not only in muscle cells. Actin ...

The results discussed in the preceding paper indicate that A-band shortening in Limulus muscle is a thick filament response to activation that occurs largely by fragmentation of filament ends. To ...

Researchers at Osaka University used electron cryomicroscopy (CryoEM) to image essential cardiac muscle components, known as thin filaments, with unprecedented resolution. They also discovered the ...

The new paper argues that, in SN 1181, the first phase of the supernova fizzled out and left behind an unusually active ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The large oligotrich rumen protozoa Diplodinium ecaudatum and Ophryoscolex caudatus have been studied by electron microscopy during interphase ...

They play a leading role not only in muscle cells. Actin filaments are one of the most abundant proteins in all mammalian cells. The filigree structures form an important part of the cytoskeleton and ...
