  2. Nucleolus - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  3. Nucleoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleoplasm

    The protoplasmic material of the nucleus including the nucleolus labelled as nucleoplasm. The nucleoplasm, also known as karyoplasm, [1] is the type of protoplasm that makes up the cell nucleus, the most prominent organelle of the eukaryotic cell. It is enclosed by the nuclear envelope, also known as the nuclear membrane. [2]

    [2] nucleolus An organelle within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells which is composed of proteins, DNA, and RNA and serves as the site of ribosome synthesis. nucleoplasm. Also karyoplasm. All of the material enclosed within the nucleus of a cell by the nuclear envelope, analogous to the cytoplasm enclosed by the main cell membrane.

  5. Nuclear organization - Wikipedia

    In fact, DNA analysis of these two types of domains have shown that many sequences overlap, indicating that certain regions may switch between lamina-binding and nucleolus-binding. [35] NADs are associated with nucleolus function. The nucleolus is the largest sub-organelle within the nucleus and is the principal site for rRNA transcription.

  6. Cytoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoplasm

    The cytoplasm describes all the material within a eukaryotic or prokaryotic cell, enclosed by the cell membrane, except for the organelles. [1] The material inside the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell and contained within the nuclear membrane is termed the nucleoplasm.

  7. Cellular compartment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_compartment

    In terms of protein synthesis, the necessary organelles are relatively near one another. The nucleolus within the nuclear envelope is the location of ribosome synthesis. The destination of synthesized ribosomes for protein translation is rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER), which is connected to and shares the same membrane with the nucleus.

  9. Nucleolus organizer region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleolus_organizer_region

    Nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) are chromosomal regions crucial for the formation of the nucleolus. In humans, the NORs are located on the short arms of the acrocentric chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22, the genes RNR1, RNR2, RNR3, RNR4, and RNR5 respectively. [1] These regions code for 5.8S, 18S, and 28S ribosomal RNA. [1]
