which is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope. DNA is transcribed into RNA inside the nucleus, then the RNA exits the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where it is used to make protein.

The nuclear envelope is a regulated membrane barrier that separates the nucleus from the cytosol in eukaryotes. Although the NE is often depicted as a static barrier, new research has identified ...

Traditionally, mitosis is considered to start when the condensing chromosomes first become visible within the prophase nucleus. The subsequent breakdown of the nuclear envelope terminates prophase ...

Normal cells use the nuclear envelope tubules to repair DNA, but cancer cells appear to need them more. To explore the mechanism's potential impact, the team analyzed data representing over 8,500 ...
