Inside all living cells, loosely formed assemblies known as biomolecular condensates perform many critical functions. However, it is not well understood how proteins and other biomolecules come ...

An essential component of living cells, the nucleolus underwent a major evolutionary shift around 300m years ago. Scientists have solved an age-old mystery in biology by discovering a protein found in ...

Chinese scientists have made a fundamental breakthrough in the understanding of the nucleolus, a structure with important functions in the nucleus. Their findings may also pave the way for diagnoses ...

Biologists discovered that a scaffolding protein called TCOF1 is responsible for the formation of a biomolecular condensate called the fibrillar center, which forms within the cell nucleolus. Inside ...

Deep within the nucleus of every cell lies a structure smaller than a pinpoint that may hold the secret to aging. Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have discovered that the nucleolus, long known ...
