StructureNucleusOrganelleFunctionLiving eukaryotic cells must carry out and coordinate an enormous number of biochemical reactions in order to obtain and convert energy to usable forms, break down and interconvert organic molecules to synthesize needed components, sense and respond to environmental and ...
The red nucleus (RN) is a large subcortical structure located in the ventral midbrain. Although it originated as a primitive relay between the cerebellum and the spinal cord, during its phylogenesis the RN shows a progressive segregation between a magnocellular part, involved in the rubrospinal s...

The cochlear nucleus is the first brain structure in the central auditory pathway. It is where the auditory nerve enters the brain stem and divides into different branches. The structure of the cochlear nucleus varies between different mammalian species, but it is an important part of processing ...
The Lateral Geniculate Nucleus is defined as a structure located in the diencephalon, consisting of six cellular layers that receive input from the optic tract fibers and optic radiations. It is divided into magnocellular (M) and parvocellular (P) layers, correlating with the Y and X classes ...
Mechanical forces transmitted through the cell directly affect nuclear shape and function, have been implicated in altered gene expression1,2, and affect numerous processes at the cellular level3,4. Such forces result in internal remodelling of the nuclear cytoarchitecture and chromatin3,5,6, ...
A: Yes, Nucleus PLUS provides mailboxes, queues and pipes for task communication. These are independent public facilities and association with tasks or other system facilities are determined by the application. Each structure may be dynamically created and deleted and there is no preset limit on th...

2.By extension, because of similar function, the genome of microorganisms (microbes), which is relatively simple in structure, lacks a nuclear envelope or membrane and does not undergo mitosis during replication. See also:virion. Synonym(s):nucleoid(3) ...
