Signaling is fundamental to how cells sense and respond to their environment—but in immune cells, those signals must be ...

Tooth root development relies on precise coordination of cellular signals, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Researchers have uncovered how two proteins, Gli2 and Gli3, work together to ...

Macrophages, the immune system’s front-line scavenger cells, do more than simply digest dead cells. A new study published in ...

This summer, over 50 researchers in the NSF EMBRIO Institute convened to share their newest findings on cellular signaling and organization that drives wound repair, cellular defense, and organismal ...

(MEMPHIS, Tenn. – November 6, 2025) The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme’s “tail” called phosphorylation patterns.

Scientists led by Sergey Troyanovsky, Ph.D., professor of Dermatology and of Cell and Developmental Biology, have uncovered new intracellular mechanisms promoting cell-cell adhesion, a process ...
