University of Virginia scientists discover new cell organelle called "hemifusome" that helps manage cellular recycling.

The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited ...

During the cell cycle, organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus must be replicated and partitioned into the daughter cells. Different mechanisms have evolved in yeasts ...

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis (MO, USA) have used rainbow yeast and hyperspectral imaging to gain insights into how organelles grow in eukaryotic cells. The coordination of ...

The complex cells that underlie animals and plants have a large collection of what are called organelles—compartments surrounded by membranes that perform specialized functions.

Learn about the ultrastructure and organelles of animal, plant, fungal and bacterial cells. BBC Bitesize Scotland revision for SQA National 5 Biology.

Marine creatures house contraband structures in special organelles, which the animal raids for food in times of need.

Even if these organelles could find a way to survive such an attack, they are unlikely to be able to function in the ...

This fluorescence image shows chloroplasts (magenta colored) successfully incorporated into the hamster cells, with other features of the animal cell also highlighted (nuclei in light blue and ...
