  2. Nuclear envelope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_envelope

    The nuclear envelope, also known as the nuclear membrane, [1] [a] is made up of two lipid bilayer membranes that in eukaryotic cells surround the nucleus, which encloses the genetic material. The nuclear envelope consists of two lipid bilayer membranes: an inner nuclear membrane and an outer nuclear membrane. [ 4 ]

  3. Cell nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_nucleus

    Diagram of the nucleus showing the ribosome-studded outer nuclear membrane, nuclear pores, DNA (complexed as chromatin), and the nucleolus. The nucleus contains nearly all of the cell's DNA, surrounded by a network of fibrous intermediate filaments called the nuclear matrix, and is enveloped in a double membrane called the nuclear envelope.

  4. Nuclear pore complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_pore_complex

    The nuclear pore complex (NPC), is a large protein complex giving rise to the nuclear pore. Nuclear pores are found in the nuclear envelope that surrounds the cell nucleus in eukaryotic cells . The nuclear envelope is studded by a great number of nuclear pores that give access to various molecules, to and from the nucleoplasm and the cytoplasm.

  5. Nucleoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleoplasm

    It is enclosed by the nuclear envelope, also known as the nuclear membrane. [2] The nucleoplasm resembles the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell in that it is a gel-like substance found within a membrane, although the nucleoplasm only fills out the space in the nucleus and has its own unique functions.

  6. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    The nuclear membrane contains a lipid bilayer that encompasses the contents of the nucleus. [2] The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a synthesis and transport organelle that branches into the cytoplasm in plant and animal cells. [3]

  7. Cell membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_membrane

    In eukaryotic cells, the nuclear membrane separates the contents of the nucleus from the cytoplasm of the cell. [42] The nuclear membrane is formed by an inner and outer membrane, providing the strict regulation of materials in to and out of the nucleus. Materials move between the cytosol and the nucleus through nuclear pores in the nuclear ...

  8. Nuclear lamina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_lamina

    The nuclear lamina consists of two components, lamins and nuclear lamin-associated membrane proteins. The lamins are type V intermediate filaments which can be categorized as either A-type (lamin A, C) or B-type (lamin B 1, B 2) according to homology of their DNA sequences, biochemical properties and cellular localization during the cell cycle.

  9. Outline of cell biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_cell_biology

    Inner nuclear membrane; Outer nuclear membrane; Perinuclear space – Space between the nuclear membranes, a region contiguous with the lumen (inside) of the endoplasmic reticulum. The nuclear membrane has many small holes called nuclear pores that allow material to move in and out of the nucleus. Lysosomes – It is a membrane-bound cell ...
