Several interacting molecular and biochemical processes are vital to establishing cell polarity. In a recent study, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, studied some of these signals in the centrosome—an organelle in the cell responsible for cellular organisation—of a single-cell embryo.
Researchers from BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad, have developed a safer, fluoride-free synthesis method for metal-organic frameworks that significantly boosts their capacity to capture greenhouse gases and store clean fuels at room temperature.
