Cell membrane proteins hide secret gateways that can be used to modify cell behavior. This has been demonstrated in a study ...

This pouch is called an endosome. A cell normally uses ... enters the rough ER and is enveloped in the ER membrane and surrounded by the M and E proteins. This step adds the viral envelope and ...

Electron tomography reveals the three-dimensional structure of membrane contact sites (colored red) between ER tubules (green) and mitochondria (purple) in a yeast cell (right) or an endosome ...

This process occurs through membrane protein complexes that provide necessary channels for the movement of proteins. In ...
