This Research Front on Mitochondrial Membrane Structure During Apoptosis from the field of Molecular Biology & Genetics was selected for mapping from the list of Emerging Research Fronts for October 2003 (data from the third bimonthly of 2003). The map is a diagrammatic representation of the 7 core papers comprising the front. View mapping methodology.

Emerging Research Fronts Comments
Stanley J. Korsmeyer & Luca Scorrano talk about the highly cited paper, "A distinct pathway remodels mitochondrial cristae and mobilizes cytochrome c during apoptosis," (DEV CELL, 2: (1) 55-67, JAN 2002) which is this month's emerging research front in plant & animal science. This paper is also represented in the map below.
