Selective activation of distinct cellular functions is often achieved through localization of calcium signals to regions ranging in size from tens of nanometers (nanodomains) to micrometers ...

A new calcium indicator called Calcium Green FlAsH allows researchers to monitor rapid and localized calcium dynamics in the cell. Got calcium? It's not just for strong bones. Calcium is an important ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a calcium indicator, or sensor, that can overcome one of the main problems associated with a technique that is used to visualize, or map the activity of individual ...

Biological processes are generally based on events at the molecular and cellular level. To understand what happens in the course of infections, diseases or normal bodily functions, scientists would ...
