Intracellular hydrogelation preserves fluid and functional cell membrane interfaces for biological interactions
Cell membrane interface is mostly studied using synthetic bilayers and reconstituted cell membranes. Here the authors present a new cell fixation method in which the cytoskeleton is replaced by a synthetic hydrogel polymer network assembled inside the cell, thereby preserving the fluid membrane prop...

Résumé: | Cell membrane interface is mostly studied using synthetic bilayers and reconstituted cell membranes. Here the authors present a new cell fixation method in which the cytoskeleton is replaced by a synthetic hydrogel polymer network assembled inside the cell, thereby preserving the fluid membrane properties after cell death. |
