Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Multiscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the ...

They then immobilized this receptor on a cell surface, and triggered a process that causes giant plasma membrane vesicles (MVs) to bud from the cell surface. This process occurs in a way that is very ...

Researchers have identified a novel mechanism by which bacteria form membrane vesicles, which bacteria employ to communicate with each other or to defend themselves against antibiotics.
