Non-uniform membrane diffusion enables steady-state cell polarization via vesicular trafficking. Nature Communications , 2013; 4: 1380 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2370 Cite This Page : ...

The formation and maintenance of polarized distributions of membrane proteins in the cell membrane are key to the function of polarized cells. In polarized neurons, various membrane proteins are ...

Join Douglas Kell, Research Chair in Systems Biology at the University of Liverpool, during this free interactive broadcast to discover how drugs pass through cell membrane solely by hitchhiking on ...

Cell membranes protect and organize cells. All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike ...

A research team reports that molecules believed to be much too large to diffuse across the cell membrane can enter with help from a family of membrane proteins (Science 2022, DOI: 10.1126/science ...

Diffusion is studied to develop models for the membrane's organization and to increase our understanding on the interaction between cell components. One dimension missing The basis for the ...

Revise the structures of cells and the difference between diffusion, osmosis and active transport. Study the factors that affect enzyme action.

Oh no! Doctor Earnest Lee Vial is destroying cell membranes! …Or freezing diffusion! …Or doing other dastardly things to cells! It’s up to you to save all of biology in this fun (if not at ...

All cells are enclosed by a cell membrane, which is selectively permeable. Molecules can move into or out of cells by diffusion and active transport. Cells can gain or lose water by osmosis.
