  2. Cajal body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cajal_body

    They are about 0.1–2.0 micrometres and are found one to five per nucleus. The number varies in different types of cells and over the cell cycle. Maximum number is reached in mid G 1 phase and towards G 2 they become larger and their number decreases. CBs disassemble during the M phase and reappear again later in G 1 phase.

    Immunofluorescence staining pattern of sp100 antibodies. Nuclear dots can be seen in the nucleus of the cells. Produced using serum from a patient with primary biliary cirrhosis on HEp-20-10 cells with a FITC conjugate. These, or similar, bodies have been found increased in the presence of lymphoid cancers [25] [26] and SLE (lupus). [27]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleolus

    The nucleolus (/ nj uː ˈ k l iː ə l ə s, ˌ nj uː k l i ˈ oʊ l ə s /; pl.: nucleoli /-l aɪ /) is the largest structure in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. [1] It is best known as the site of ribosome biogenesis. The nucleolus also participates in the formation of signal recognition particles and plays a role in the cell's response to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_nucleus

    The cell nucleus (from Latin nucleus or nuculeus 'kernel, seed'; pl.: nuclei) is a membrane-bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells usually have a single nucleus, but a few cell types, such as mammalian red blood cells , have no nuclei , and a few others including osteoclasts have many .

  7. Nuclear envelope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_envelope

    The nuclear envelope, also known as the nuclear membrane, [1] [a] is made up of two lipid bilayer membranes that in eukaryotic cells surround the nucleus, which encloses the genetic material. The nuclear envelope consists of two lipid bilayer membranes: an inner nuclear membrane and an outer nuclear membrane. [ 4 ]

  8. Nuclear pore complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_pore_complex

    The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a crucial cellular structure with a diameter of approximately 120 nanometers in vertebrates. Its channel varies from 5.2 nanometers in humans [14] to 10.7 nm in the frog Xenopus laevis, with a depth of roughly 45 nm. [15] Additionally, mRNA, being single-stranded, has a thickness ranging from 0.5 to 1 nm.
