Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells ...

Animal cell and molecular biology encompasses the study of eukaryotic cells as the fundamental units of life, focusing on their structure, function, development, and the intricate regulatory ...

Energy-making chloroplasts from algae have been inserted into hamster cells, enabling the cells to photosynthesize light, according to new research in Japan. It was previously thought that combining ...

More than a billion years ago a hungry cell devoured a tiny blue-green alga. But instead of the former simply digesting the latter, the duo struck a remarkable evolutionary deal. Now scientists are ...

In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...
