Living cells may generate electricity from motion

Scientists have developed a new theoretical explanation for how living cells might generate electricity on their own. At the center of the idea is the cell membrane, the thin, flexible layer that surrounds every living cell and controls what enters and leaves it. Rather than being a static barrier, this membrane is constantly moving and […]

Perinuclear non-centrosomal microtubules direct nuclei dispersion during epithelial morphogenesis

As cells contract and reshape to enable tissue morphogenesis, their own internal structures can constrain these behaviors. In the Drosophila germband, the uncrowding of nuclei away from an initially common plane is required for efficient cell intercalation and extension. Here, we find that a centrosomally derived microtubule network transitions into non-centrosomal arrays that are deeply […]
