Algae are the new delivery drivers: they are tiny enough to float in inhalable liquid particles and travel deep inside the ...

Among the most important PAMPs is flagellin, the main protein in bacterial flagella—the whip-like structures bacteria use to propel themselves. "Early detection of the enemy is a central tenet ...

Directly opposite stands an angel carrying whips with the inscription: “In flagella paratus sum” (“I am ready for the scourging”), sculpted by Lazzaro Morelli. An angel bearing the ...

Here, a new tool enables precise spatiotemporal control of this modification, showing that it physically recruits microtubule nucleation factors and thereby supports proper cilia formation and mitotic ...

Deep within the intricate world of microfluidics, where tiny volumes of fluid are manipulated with extreme precision, a new player is emerging: programmable magnetic artificial cilia. These hair-like ...

An underwater robot can delicately propel itself in any direction with its 12 flexible arms, inspired by the flagella of bacteria. Its creators claim it can carry out underwater inspections ...

MT-like, Microtubule-binding-like domain ... the roles of dynein proteins in sperm flagellar development and their functional difference in flagella and cilia, offering a diagnostic target for genetic ...
