In a study recently published in the journal Nano Letters, researchers from Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), ...

Scientists used frequency-modulated atomic force microscopy to reveal the submolecular structure of microtubule (MT) inner ...

Most cell structures are not visible to the naked eye without using stains for visualization. The stains used in these images highlight how cell biologists use tricks to “see the invisible.” Invite ...

Electron microscopy has emerged as an important ... use of ET of frozen Dictyostelium discoideum cells to study the actin cytoskeleton without first having to remove membranes or extract soluble ...

Cryo-electron microscopy has become a popular route ... For example, a process known as unroofing can be used to view the membrane cytoskeleton inside the cell. Unroofing involves the mechanical ...

This is an electron microscopy picture of a section through the flagellum of a Drosophila melanogaster sperm cell. The base of the flagellum is on the left, and the falgellum's skeleton extends ...
