Using immunofluorescence and live-cell imaging, researchers were recently able to determine the mechanism underlying the repairing mechanism of the nuclear envelope, which play a key role in various ...

herniations that project and retract much like solar flares radiating from the surface of the sun. Intermittently, these Vpr-induced herniations rupture leading to the inappropriate mixing of cellular ...

All living cells harbor nuclei - key biological structures that play an important role in information storage, retrieval, and duplication of genetic information. In mammals, these nuclei possess the ...

Researchers have discovered a DNA repair mechanism that advances understanding of how human cells stay healthy, and which could lead to new treatments for cancer and premature aging. Researchers at ...
