Researchers in Freiburg and Bonn provide the first comprehensive mapping of the protein machineries in the mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell.
The transport of molecules along the cell's skeleton plays a role in cancer metastasis, Freiburg researchers show.
Phosphazene-Based Electrolyte Additives Stabilize Silicon-Based Lithium-Ion Batteries - Silicon (Si) is considered a promising anode material in next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIB). Its practical application has so far been hindered by challenges such as capacity losses during battery operation.
