A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has identified a key mechanism responsible for endosomal recycling ...

Light and electron microscopy have distinct limitations. Light microscopy makes it difficult to resolve smaller and smaller ...

Electron microscopy revealed that a deadly disease of birds was not a form of flu, but a different type of virus entirely. Ashley started at The Scientist in 2018. Before joining the staff, she worked ...

Transmission electron microscopy is a general type of electron microscopy that generates an image of the internal structure of a thin sample using a beam of electrons to achieve much higher ...

Using electron microscopy, the team was able to visualize the trapped proteins at a specific moment during the reaction and uncovered new ways the proteins coordinate their actions, which helps ...

Current optical and electron microscopy imaging techniques are not suited for measuring the dynamic characteristics of living microorganisms at tiny scales due to complex sample preparation methods or ...

This study presents a valuable finding on the alterations in the autophagic-lysosomal pathway in a Huntington's disease model. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is solid. However, the ...

The Louis Mashal Gabbay Cellular Visualization and Electron Microscopy Center was founded in 1972 as the Laboratory of Structural Biology by Dr. Susan Lowey, Dr. Carolyn Cohen, and Dr. Don Caspar (who ...

In addition to fluorescence labeling, the researchers can also click on gold nanoparticles for immuno-electron microscopy studies. The researchers used this approach to visualize choline ...

1. A glowing gene tagA new, genetically-encoded fluorescent protein created in the lab of Roger Tsien, who shared a Nobel Prize for developing green fluorescent protein (GFP), is poised to ...

The entorhinal cortex (EC) plays a pivotal role in memory function and spatial navigation, connecting the hippocampus with the neocortex. The EC integrates a wide range of cortical and subcortical ...

Critical Dimension Scanning Electron Microscopy (CD-SEM) is a powerful tool that enables researchers and manufacturers to visualize and quantify nanoscale features with incredible accuracy, playing a ...
