Scientists have discovered that starving and then refeeding worms can reveal surprising secrets about aging. When a specific ...

With a new mapping tool, Princeton engineers have revealed how a factory inside cells builds ribosomes, the machinery ...

In an article published today in Nature, the team of Professor Denis Lafontaine (Head of the RNA Molecular Biology Laboratory ...

A team led by Princeton University researchers has developed a tool to peer inside the nucleolus, the cellular compartment ...

Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But a critical aspect ...

Senescent cells, which are damaged and inflammatory, contribute significantly to aging. Researchers at the Max Planck ...

A team of researchers from Shanghai's Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, studied in detail the location of 200 proteins in the "super factory" of the ...

The nucleolus, a membraneless organelle crucial for ribosome production, has a unique nanoscale structure whose organization is responsive to cell signals and disease progression. Here, we highlight ...

This important study reveals that the nucleolar protein Treacle undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation in vitro and in vivo. It provides convincing evidence that the ability of Treacle to form phase ...

The nucleolus primarily consists of DNA and RNA proteins, functioning as the primary site for ribosomal RNA synthesis. This process proves essential for creating ribosomes, the cellular machinery ...
