The network of tubules may give the ER flexibility to adapt to changing cellular conditions, the authors suggested in their report. The tubules are cross-linked at three-way junctions, the researchers ...

The tubular structure of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) can be modulated by distinct interactions with microtubules: ER tubules can be attached directly to existing microtubules, slide along them ...

SV40 remains for up to four hours in relatively static caveosomes before it is transported to the endoplasmic reticulum in much ... and transport of these tubules depend on microtubules.

The ER’s network of tubules rearranges itself, appearing green at first and then magenta after 60 seconds. White indicates areas where the network remains in position. Disclaimer: AAAS and ...

The peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms a continuous, dynamic network of tubules that plays an important role in protein transport and quality control, cellular signaling, and stress response.

Pyroptosis, a highly inflammatory type of programmed cell death, has garnered attention for its potential in cancer treatment.
