Beyond ribosome biogenesis: noncoding nucleolar RNAs in physiology and tumor biology
Nucleus, 2023 The nucleolus, the largest subcompartment of the nucleus, stands out from the nucleoplasm due to its exceptionally high local RNA and low DNA concentrations.

The structure of the mitotic spindle and nucleolus during mitosis in the amebo-flagellate Naegleria. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mitosis in the amebo-flagellate Naegleria pringsheimi is acentrosomal and closed (the nuclear membrane does not break down). The large central nucleolus, which occupies about 20% of the nuclear volume, persists throughout the cell cycle.

iScience, 2020 Summary: The enlarged distinct bulky-ball-like nucleolus matrix assembly is observed in most cancer stem cells (CSCs); however, the underlying mechanism is largely unknown.

The nucleolus functions as the compartment for histone H2B protein degradation
iScience, 2021 Summary: Histones are main components of chromatin, and the protein levels of histones significantly affect chromatin assembly. However, how histone protein levels are regulated, especially whether and how histones are degraded, is largely unclear. Here,

Nucleolar Organization and Functions in Health and Disease
Cells, 2020 The nucleolus is a prominent, membraneless compartment found within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. It forms around ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, where it coordinates the transcription, processing, and packaging of rRNA to produce ribosomal subunits ...

mBio, 2023 The nucleolus has emerged as a central hub for nuclear functions in eukaryotes. Studies in mammals and the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed that the nucleolus is pivotal to nuclear functions other than ribosome biogenesis.

On the Locus of the Nucleolus [PDF]
, 1994 In this paper we prove some properties of the locus of the nucleolus of a set C that can be the core of a cooperative game. We show that there are two subsets of C, the kernel and the least core, only dependent on the set C that contain this locus. From this fact we derive that for a set C which is the core of convex game the locus consists of one ...

Histochemistry and Cell Biology, 2018 The nucleolus as site of ribosome biogenesis holds a pivotal role in cell metabolism. It is composed of ribosomal DNA (rDNA), which is present as tandem arrays located in nucleolus organizer regions (NORs). In interphase cells, rDNA can be found inside and adjacent to nucleoli and the location is indicative for transcriptional activity of ribosomal ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 In all eukaryotic cells, the nucleolus is functionally and structurally linked to rRNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis. This compartment contains as well factors involved in other cellular activities, but the functional interconnection between non ...
