Scientists have reported the exact molecular structure and mechanisms of a major cell signaling pathway that serves a broad range of functions in humans.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Purdue researchers have discovered the structure of the enzyme that makes cellulose, a finding that could lead to easier ways of breaking down plant materials to make biofuels ...
Plant biologists have succeeded for the first time in visualizing how egg cells in plants divides unequally (asymmetric cell division) after being fertilized. The direction of this asymmetric cell ...
So in order to understand Cell Biology, we should study all the aspects of the structure and functions of cells. Also, it is necessary to understand the difference between plant and animal cells.
Lam has studied the process at the heart of the enzyme's pivotal role in plant health—a phenomenon known as programmed cell death or cell suicide—for the past 30 years.
We have the first video of a plant cell wall being built Plant cells without a cell wall are fragile, so it's hard to image its construction.
