Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have discovered how a group of proteins linked to Parkinson’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis act as “guardians” of mitochondria, small ...

Cells lacking a stiff cell wall, e.g., mammalian cells, must actively regulate their volume to maintain proper cell function. On the time scale that protein production is negligible, water flow in and ...
