Previously unknown intercellular electricity may power biology

Researchers have discovered that the electrical fields and activity that exist through a cell’s membrane also exist within and around another type of cellular structure called biological condensates. Like oil droplets floating in water, these structures exist because of differences in density. Their foundational discovery could change the way researchers think about biological chemistry. It could also provide a clue as to how the first life on Earth harnessed the energy needed to arise.
