Using powerful new visualization technologies, researchers have captured the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, providing new insights on how muscles develop across the animal ...
A new study explains how a tiny enzyme switch helps muscles make energy during exercise and may even connect to diabetes risk ...
The connections between the nervous system and muscles develop differently across the kingdom of life. It takes newborn humans roughly a year to develop the proper muscular systems that support the ...
Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...
Much like their name implies, the quadricep muscles were once thought to be a set of four muscles, with the name “quad” translating to “four or fourth” in Latin. However, it has since been discovered ...
In a serendipitous discovery, UC San Diego researchers using cryo-EM technology captured the first visualizations of the 3-D structure of the muscle acetylcholine receptor in fetal and adult muscles.
