Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But ...

The secret to cellular youth may depend on keeping the nucleolus—a condensed structure inside the nucleus of a cell—small, according to Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. The findings were ...

The nucleolus is the most prominent compartment in the nucleus and known as the site for ribosome biogenesis in eucaryotes. In contrast, there is no such equivalent structure for ribosome ...

The secret to cellular youth may depend on keeping the nucleolus—a condensed structure inside the nucleus of a cell—small, according to Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. The findings were ...

A team led by Princeton University researchers has developed a tool to peer inside the nucleolus, the cellular compartment ...

Humans Have a Secret ‘Mortality Timer’ That Could Delay Aging, Scientists Say The size of the nucleolus could determine how long a cell has before it dies—and the smaller, the better.

Biologists discovered that a scaffolding protein called TCOF1 is responsible for the formation of a biomolecular condensate called the fibrillar center, which forms within the cell nucleolus.

Deep within the nucleus of every cell lies a structure smaller than a pinpoint that may hold the secret to aging. Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have discovered that the nucleolus, long ...

Protein droplet formation is enhanced by improperly disordered proteins, possibly leading to many types of genetic disease.
