A look at the cells of different organisms and a comparison of the structures found in plant and animal cells. All animal cells are surrounded by a membrane which contains the cytoplasm.

Plant cells have some specialized properties that make them distinct from animal cells. Learn how special structures, such as chloroplasts and cell walls, create this distinction.

A research team at KAIST has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation ...

Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

Scientists have uncovered a key mechanism in jellyfish embryos that provides new insights into how the body plan of these ...
