  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. Cellular compartment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_compartment

    In terms of protein synthesis, the necessary organelles are relatively near one another. The nucleolus within the nuclear envelope is the location of ribosome synthesis. The destination of synthesized ribosomes for protein translation is rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER), which is connected to and shares the same membrane with the nucleus.

  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. Cell nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_nucleus

    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. The nuclear envelope separates the fluid inside the nucleus, called the nucleoplasm, from the rest of the cell.

  6. Karyogamy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyogamy

    Merging of the nuclear envelopes of the pi occurs in three steps: fusion of the outer membrane, fusion of the inner membrane, and fusion of the spindle pole bodies. In yeast, several members of the Kar family of proteins, as well as a protamine, are required for the fusion of nuclear membranes. The protamine Prm3 is located on the outer surface ...

  7. Telophase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telophase

    The main components of the nuclear envelope are a double membrane, nuclear pore complexes, and a nuclear lamina internal to the inner nuclear membrane. These components are dismantled during prophase and prometaphase and reconstructed during telophase, when the nuclear envelope reforms on the surface of separated sister chromatids.

  8. Cell envelope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_envelope

    The cell envelope comprises the inner cell membrane and the cell wall of a bacterium. In Gram-negative bacteria an outer membrane is also included. [ 1 ] This envelope is not present in the Mollicutes where the cell wall is absent.

  9. Intermembrane space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermembrane_space

    The nuclear envelope is composed of two lipid bilayer membranes that are penetrated by nuclear pores and separated by a small intermembrane space, which is often called the perinuclear space. [12] The perinuclear space is usually about 20-40 nm wide. [13]
