Researchers have created an array of nanopillars that can breach the nucleus of a cell -- the compartment that houses our DNA -- without damaging the cell's outer membrane. This new 'gateway into ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that the 'pacemaker' controlling yeast cell division lies inside the nucleus rather than outside it, as previously thought. Having the ...

Proteins need to come in and out of the nucleus, the control center of the cell, to give different functions, such as telling the nucleus to switch on or off certain genes.

A new study has revealed how HIV squirms its way into the nucleus as it invades a cell. Because viruses have to hijack someone else's cell to replicate, they've gotten very good at it -- inventing ...

New research from the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery is tackling a complex packing problem. Thanks to the development of a powerful new computational tool introduced in a study published earlier ...

After more than 30 years, physicists in Finland have uncovered the heaviest nucleus ever seen to emit a proton, a rare ...

A team led by scientists at Northwestern University has discovered how paraspeckles, a landmark (condensate) found in the ...

Our cells produce a variety of proteins, each with a specific role that, in many cases, means that they need to be in a ...
