The fatty membrane surrounding every living cell is a vibrant environment where countless biological processes take place.

The ribosome is a large assembly of proteins and ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) that functions to translate messenger RNAs (mRNAs) into proteins. The ribosome catalyzes the assembly of amino acids into ...

The autophagosome then fuses with another type of vesicle called a lysosome. The fused stage is called an autolysosome. The autolysosome ultimately matures into a lysosome, where the waste is ...

Moreover, the study identified, for the first time, the fully rotated ribosome bound to the open form of eEF3. The researchers found that eEF3 binds to the ribosome early in translocation ...

Organelles: subcellular structures that perform specific jobs in the cell, including the nuclei, which store genetic information; mitochondria, which produce chemical energy; and ribosomes, which ...

Background: The lysosome plays a vitally crucial role in tumor development and is a major participant in the cell death process, involving aberrant functional and structural changes. However, there ...

The nutrient-sensing network, mediated by MTORC1 complex, is a central regulator of mRNA and ribosome biogenesis, protein synthesis, glucose metabolism, autophagy, lipid metabolism, mitochondrial ...
