Feulgen - positive staining
of the cell nuclei in fossilized leaf and fruit tissues of the Lower Eocene Myrtaceae
To overcome this problem, the researchers utilized a method that involved dissolving the cell membranes in order to create a sort of «brain soup» so that they can then count the
number of cell nuclei in a sample.
Cloning requires the
insertion of a cell nucleus into a denucleated egg, and perfecting human SCNT techniques will require much trial and error, meaning a potential vertical spike in demand.
The mitochondria are located in the cytosol of the cells,
outside of the cell nucleus; the cell's DNA genome is located inside the nuclear membrane.
Messenger RNA molecules of two different genes (red and green) are located on different
sides of the cell nuclei (blue).
The latest such roster — 271 proteins identified in a
compartment of the cell nucleus called the nucleolus — is a first step toward fully deciphering this organelle, a critical element in the construction of ribosomes, which build proteins.
Dyer and his colleagues also mapped the three - dimensional organization of the retinal epigenome to discover how retinal cells package their genes in concentric
regions of the cell nucleus.
The way our genes are arrayed and move in the 3 - D
space of the cell nucleus turns out to profoundly influence how they function, in both health and disease
These are all questions the researchers hope to answer by studying other kinds of life — such as prokaryotes, organisms
devoid of cell nuclei, like bacteria — over longer periods of time, and even in different cities.
(Right three images) Labeled images created with three different fluorescent labels, revealing invisible
details of cell nuclei (blue), dendrites (green), and axons (red).
With the proven success of the imaging technique, Larabell said it's possible to perform statistical analyses based on large
collections of cell nuclei images sorted by different stages of development.
It is used in the development of an agent - based three - dimensional computational model for the initial phase of spheroid formation, in the development of image analysis procedures and in the
segmentation of cell nuclei in two - dimensional and three - dimensional data sets.
Somehow this expansion flags the
machinery of the cell nucleus to silence the gene, by packing its DNA into a more tightly twisted form, known as heterochromatin.
The Gall laboratory studies all
aspects of the cell nucleus, particularly the structure of chromosomes, the transcription and processing of RNA, and the role of bodies inside the cell nucleus, especially the Cajal body (CB) and the histone locus body (HLB).
As a ciliated protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila exhibits nuclear dimorphism: two
types of cell nuclei.
This suggests that actin's mechanical properties are finely tuned to resist the force of gravity but also allow flexibility and
rigidity of the cell nucleus to support life.
The Noma laboratory seeks to determine evolutionarily conserved 3D genome - organizing mechanisms and their functions in the yeast model as well as in the human system, and also establish a clear mechanistic framework for understanding the molecular underpinnings for human cancers related to the
disorganization of the cell nucleus.
HDAC3 functions on the epigenome, the molecular
component of the cell nucleus that specifies which genes are expressed — and just as importantly, which ones are not — in different cells of the body.
The cells in such a brain tumor can display very different characteristics, such as varying cell size or
number of cell nuclei.
