A previously unknown structure discovered in our cells could pave the way toward new treatments for various genetic disorders. The existence of the organelle—which has been dubbed the "hemifusome"—was ...

Plants grow from something unexpected—carbon drawn in through tiny pores called stomata. At Stanford, researchers are ...

Plant cell sculptors How key proteins take on different roles to shape development Date: May 21, ... rely on the dynamic reorganisation of their cytoskeleton to grow and respond to their environment.

Although some plant species and cell types can divide in the absence of PPBs, e.g., starchy endosperm, meiocytes, and some cultured suspension cells (Otegui and Staehelin, 2000; Chan et al., 2005; ...

Animal stem cells use the cytoskeleton – a transient network of structural tubules – to physically pull the correct materials from the parent cell into each daughter cell during the split. Plants also ...

In a new study published July 6 in Science, researchers at Stanford University found that plant cells also use the cytoskeleton. But there's a twist.

Every time a stem cell divides, one daughter cell remains a stem cell while the other takes off on its own developmental journey. But both daughter cells require specific and different cellular ...

Plant stem cells use cytoskeleton differently, which could lead to more resilient plants. By Vidya Nagalwade. 7 Jul, 2023. 3 min read. Updated 15 Jul, 2023. Follow us on. An image of a developing leaf ...

Plant and animal stem cells both rely on the cytoskeleton to divide properly, but a new Stanford study finds that they use them in opposite ways – while animal cells pull on the cytoskeleton ...

In a new study published July 6 in Science, researchers at the University of California San Diego found that plant cells also use the cytoskeleton. But there’s a twist. Instead of pulling on the ...
