How do mitochondrial organelles remove damaged parts of inner membrane for recycling in the cytoplasm? The discovery of an exit route that flips inner membrane outside the organelle provides some ...

Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the metabolism of the cell, they also play a key role in the integration of signals ...

A recent study by the University of Bonn and University Hospital Bonn and the University of Freiburg shows that the ...

In a study using lab-grown cells, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers specializing in aging report they have successfully delivered a common blood pressure drug directly to the inner membrane of ...

Mitochondria, the powerhouse of cells, are involved in several critical functions including cell division and preserving responses to various types of stress. Studying the details of the mitochondria ...

A recent study explains an essential component for proper mitochondrial function: The protein complexes MICOS and ATP synthase can communicate with each other. Researchers have uncovered an important ...

A 3D reconstruction showing the inner mitochondrial membrane (red) herniating into a closely associated lysosome (green). The outer mitochondrial membrane is shown in blue and the nucleus is shown in ...

Newly published CU Boulder research reveals previously unknown qualities of a gene vital to a cell’s mitochondrial structure and function A key takeaway from first-year biology is that mitochondria ...

Researchers at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) report that mitochondria depend on a newly discovered recycling mechanism. Their research demonstrates mitochondria can recycle a localized ...

A newly identified identified cellular mechanism allows mitochondria to recycle localized damage and maintain healthy function. Mitochondria, the so-called "powerhouse of the cell," depend on a newly ...
