New insights into plant cell organelle and molecule movement: New research reveals a protein, TGNap1, that supports the poorly-understood Trans-Golgi Network in structure, function, and motion. The study also provides evidence for microtubule-driven organelle movement, a new line of thought in plant science.

[VIDEO] How bacteria organize their factories, and what it means for a bioeconomy: MSU scientists report how cyanobacteria line up their CO₂-fixing factories within them in a system that works like Velcro. The research is part of an effort to control and repurpose these factories to make products for human consumption.

New ways to control bacterial factories for future biotech uses: The new methods let scientists assemble the factories on demand and insert custom molecules inside them for further processing. The aim is to eventually design sustainable medical, industrial, or energy applications.
