A team of physicists has devised a novel strategy that uses naturally occurring motions inside the human cell nucleus to measure the physical properties of the nucleus and its components. The method, ...

The primary function of the nucleolus is as the site of ribosome-subunit biogenesis in eukaryotic cells. The initial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) precursor is transcribed by RNA polymerase I and is ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The ability to observe for extended periods of time individual tobacco cells growing in microculture has made it possible to describe the ...

(Medical Xpress) -- Damaging a cell’s nucleolus could destroy cancer cells by increasing levels of the most important tumour prevention protein, p53, reveals research presented at the National Cancer ...

Ageing researchers have long been searching for so-called biomarkers of ageing, which allow predictions about health and lifespan of organisms. Varnesh Tiku, a scientist in the department of Director ...

If it was possible to know how long someone is destined to live, would it be possible to resist taking a peek at it? A review published this year in Cell Biology tempted us with that information. The ...

Researchers at the University of Minnesota have identified the protein responsible for disassembly of donor nucleoli in the context of nuclear cloning. Although it was already known that nucleoli, ...

In a first for the condensate field, researchers have figured out how nucleolar sub-structures are assembled. This organization gives rise to unique pH profiles within nucleoli, which they measured ...

A cell stores all of its genetic material in its nucleus, in the form of chromosomes, but that's not all that's tucked away in there. The nucleus is also home to small bodies called nucleoli—clusters ...

Epidermal nucleoli undergo morphological changes in Gammarus that are about to molt or that have received small integumental lesions. The nucleoli largely change from a condensed condition to one in ...

Reannotation and Analysis of Clinical and Chemotherapy Outcomes in the Ovarian Data Set From The Cancer Genome Atlas Nuclear pleomorphic patterns are essential for Fuhrman grading of clear cell renal ...
