An international study led by the University of Basel has discovered that nuclear pore complexes—tiny gateways in the nuclear ...

Cancer cells with a cell nucleus that is easily deformed are more sensitive to drugs that damage DNA. These are the findings of a new study by researchers at Linköping University in Sweden.

When two cells "talk" to each other, they often do so through tiny channels called electrical synapses. Unlike chemical ...

Kanazawa University, have discovered how a gene-regulating protein forms tiny liquid-like droplets inside the cell nucleus ...

Each cell in our bodies carries about two meters of DNA in its nucleus, packed into a tiny volume of just a few hundred cubic micrometers-about a millionth of a milliliter. The cell manages this by ...

Kanazawa University, have discovered how a gene-regulating protein forms tiny liquid-like droplets inside the cell nucleus (the compartment that stores and manages DNA) to guard against cancer. Their ...
