Emily Spaulding, Ph.D., a Maine native and Assistant Professor at the MDI Biological Laboratory, has received a $2.3 million, ...

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 ...

Research at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) reveals that autonomous parvoviruses, such as canine parvovirus, are highly capable of affecting the internal balance of the nucleolus. The results ...

RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is a short-lived molecule copied from DNA that enables cells to use genetic information. Specific DNA sequences are copied into RNA, which then delivers these instructions to ...

Cells do a lot of work to stay alive, and much of that work depends on how they organize their interiors. One small compartment inside the nucleus has come into focus with regards to aging: the ...
