Some of the body's cells stay put for life, while others are free to roam. To move, these migratory cells rely on filopodia—sensitive, finger-like protrusions that reach out from the cell membrane ...

Scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center, working with other U.S. researchers, have uncovered the structure of a key cell ...

Phospholipid distribution across the lipid bilayer of plasma membranes is critical for various cellular functions. A genome-wide screen and structural analysis identified TMEM63B as a membrane ...

Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...
