Inside human cells, biology has pulled off the ultimate packing job, figuring out how to fit six feet of DNA into a nucleus ...
COLD SPRING HARBOR, N.Y. (Nov. 30, 2010) --The nucleus of a cell contains its DNA and is the site where DNA replication, transcription, and RNA processing take place. Within the nucleus, nuclear ...
UCLA scientists have characterized the structure and function of a key survival protein in breast cancer cells that helps ...
Findings in nuclear physics theory have received several Nobel Prizes (1975-nucleus vibrations and rotations, 1963-nuclear shell model, 1949-meson exchange model of nuclear forces). Despite these ...

Scientists have uncovered how a newly discovered gene, NEK1, in which mutations have been linked to ALS cases, disrupts the function of the motor neuron and causes it to degenerate and die. The viral ...
Proteoglycans are ubiquitous molecules that function as critical components of the extracellular matrix. These proteins are composed of glycosaminoglycan chains that are covalently attached to a ...
The chemistry of organic matter and life depends on carbon atoms. Its most prevalent isotope, carbon-12, has incredibly intricate mechanics. The energy and underlying structures of the nuclear states ...
Cancer cells with a cell nucleus that is easily deformed are more sensitive to drugs that damage DNA. These are the findings ...
