Cell batteries: condensates charge the membrane
Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...
Mutualist-pathogen co-colonisation modulates phosphoinositide signatures at host intracellular interfaces: Nicotiana benthamiana plants expressing biosensors for PI4P and PI(4,5)P2. PI(4,5)P2 was ...
Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
The plant cell wall is composed of complex polysaccharides, including cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, and serves as an effective physical barrier against microbial pathogens. To successfully ...
