Ribosomes turn upside-down in hungry cells Scientists have observed that yeast cells have a remarkable adaptation to starvation: their mitochondria get coated by a swarm of massive molecular ...

Second, immunoelectron microscopic analysis of wild-type yeast localized Dnm1 to discrete clusters on the sides and tips of mitochondrial tubules. A significant fraction of these clusters was ...

The researchers identified the structure of this machine, the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC), and 50 years since its discovery, have shown how it operates like the lock on a canal to transport ...

Horwich asked: "'What if there is a machinery inside mitochondria that actually helps imported proteins to fold to their native form?'" Yes, it was outlandish, but they already had the strains to see ...

In a breakthrough that could shed light on the inner workings of human cells and advance the understanding of rare genetic ...
