COPI selectively drives maturation of the early Golgi.

eLife 2015 📊 69

COPI coated vesicles carry material between Golgi compartments, but the role of COPI in the secretory pathway has been ambiguous. Previous studies of thermosensitive yeast...

Chirality Transfer via Orientational Order of Micellar Assemblies on Gold Nanocrystals.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.) 2026

ABSTRACT Chiral Au nanocrystals are promising materials for biosensing and therapeutic applications. However, how chirality emerges during their seed‐mediated synthesis remains unclear, leading to limited...

Alteration in epithelium and stroma of Post-INTACS cornea: Ultrastructure and 3D transmission electron tomography.

Histology and histopathology 2026

This study was conducted to investigate the ultrastructure of the epithelium and stroma of post-INTACS corneas. INTACS were surgically inserted into the corneas of three...

Cryo-FIB-enabled 3D imaging of biological specimens.

Applied microscopy 2026

Abstract Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) has become a key technique for observing the three-dimensional structures of biomolecular complexes and organelles in cellular and tissue environments in...

Advances in automation for cryo-electron tomography data collection.

Current opinion in structural biology 2025

Cryo-electron microscopy has become the preferred method for determining structures of macromolecular complexes both in isolation, using single particle analysis, and in their cellular contexts,...

Inheritance of four-membrane-bound structures in the “apicoplast-minus” Plasmodium falciparum.

mSphere 2026

ABSTRACT Most apicomplexan parasites contain a plastid-derived organelle called the apicoplast, which originated through secondary endosymbiosis. As a result of this evolutionary trajectory, the non-photosynthetic...

Volume electron microscopy in axon regeneration research: insights into mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and membrane contacts.

Frontiers in neural circuits 2026

Analysing organelle structures in tissue samples that preserve the in vivo environment, rather than in isolated cells, can provide valuable information on the mechanisms underlying...

Centromeres in the thermotolerant yeast K. marxianus mediate attachment to a single microtubule.

Research square 2025

Abstract Eukaryotic chromosome segregation requires spindle microtubules to attach to chromosomes through kinetochores. The chromosomal locus that mediates kinetochore assembly is the centromere and is...

Breaking Barriers: Transitioning from X-ray Crystallography to Cryo-EM for Structural Studies of ATAD2B.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology 2025

Abstract Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has transformed structural biology by enabling near-atomic resolution of large macromolecular complexes without the need for crystallization. Here, we describe our...

Cryo-electron tomography reveals paracellular claudin-15 pores at the tight junction.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology 2026

ABSTRACT Tight junctions (TJs) are composed of anastomosing strands between epithelial cells. Members of the claudin family of proteins reside within TJ strands and either...
