Transport of molecules within a cell and out of the cell requires a complex endomembrane system. Endocytosis occurs when the cell membrane engulfs particles (dark blue) outside the cell ...
This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...
The ability to maintain concentration gradients and sometimes move materials against them is vital to cell health and maintenance. Thanks to membrane barriers and transport proteins, the cell can ...

Scientists develop self-sustained protein transport and tissue assembly in artificial cellsFor the study, the researchers aimed to functionalize the cell membrane to enable protein transport across the membrane and assemble them into tissue-like structures afterward. Biological channels ...
Breakthrough study in Nature Materials reveals DNA nanorafts reshape synthetic cells for controlled membrane dynamics and ...
Scientists have revealed the secret to the structural integrity of tiny particles that transport cargo from cell to cell through ... through the protective outer membrane, a necessary step to ...
Transport across membranes All cells are enclosed by a cell membrane, which is selectively permeable. Molecules can move into or out of cells by diffusion and active transport. Cells can gain or ...
Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have succeeded in creating a close connection between individual cells and ...
Similar to a small cut that heals itself after a short time, individual cells in our body suffer "wounds" in their protective layer, the cell membrane, every day and have to repair them again.
