Cryo-EM structure of the TRiC-plp2-substrate complex showing plp2 and substrate located within a distinct TRiC chamber in the open NPP state. (A) Top and side views of the map of the ...

How did life leap from simple microbial cells to the complex, structured cells that make up animals, plants, and fungi? A new study in The EMBO Journal by researchers at the Indian Institute of ...

Viral infection induces cytoskeleton remodeling into cage-like structure. Virus infection can cause severe rearrangement of the cytoskeleton, and all three kinds of cytoskeleton form a cage-like ...

My current research includes building coarse-grained models and simulations of cytoskeletal filaments and their associated motor proteins with the aim of better understanding the role of cytoskeleton ...

The motion of motor proteins on biopolymers is important for diverse biological processes. Actin, microtubules, and nucleic acids can serve as one-dimensional tracks on which motor proteins move.
