🧬🔬 Most Detailed Visualization of a Cell Ever Created
...
Each of your body’s 30-40 trillion cells is a complex microscopic city inside!
This 3D model of a eukaryotic cell was created using X-ray, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), & cryo-electron microscopy datasets.
It’s an attempt to visualize the many pathways involved in cellular processes (i.e. signal transduction, protein synthesis, endocytosis, vesicular transport, cell-cell adhesion, apoptosis) as well as the great complexity & beauty of the cell’s molecular machinery.
NOTE: Cell membrane & organelle outlines are shown for context only but are not themselves based on data.
