Although the natural abundance of nitrogen-15 [14390-96-6] leads to lower sensitivity than for carbon-13, this nucleus has attracted considerable interest in the area of polypeptide and protein stmcture deterrnination. Uniform enrichment of is achieved by growing protein synthesi2ing cells in media where is the only nitrogen source. reverse shift correlation via double quantum coherence permits the... 

The specific role of vitamin A in tissue differentiation has been an active area of research. The current thinking, developed in 1979, involves initial dehvery of retinol by holo-B >V (retinol-binding protein) to the cell cytosol (66). Retinol is then ultimately oxidized to retinoic acid and binds to a specific cellular retinoid-binding protein and is transported to the nucleus. Retinoic acid is then transferred to a nuclear retinoic acid receptor (RAR), which enhances the expression of a specific region of the genome. Transcription occurs and new proteins appear during the retinoic acid-induced differentiation of cells (56). 

In apoptotic cell death, several factors such as growth factors, NO, the tumor suppressor gene p53, and the protein encoded by this gene contribute to the process that leads to cell death. One of the functions of p53 protein is the activation of apoptosis if a cell is transformed to a malignant cell. Apoptosis typically leads to the formation of smaller membrane-encapsulated particles within the cell. Apoptotic cell death begins in the nucleus and proceeds to other parts of the cell. The death process may be quite advanced before it can... 

Nucleus The nucleus is separated from the cytosol by a double membrane, the nuclear envelope. The DNA is complexed with basic proteins (histones) to form chromatin fibers, the material from which chromosomes are made. A distinct RNA-rich region, the nucleolus, is the site of ribosome assembly. The nucleus is the repository of genetic information encoded in DNA and organized into chromosomes. During mitosis, the chromosomes are replicated and transmitted to the daughter cells. The genetic information of DNA is transcribed into RNA in the nucleus and passes into the cytosol where it is translated into protein by ribosomes. 

The DNA in a eukaryotic cell nucleus during the interphase between cell divisions exists as a nucleoprotein complex called chromatin. The proteins of chromatin fall into two classes histones and nonhistone chromosomal proteins.

Proteins are complex molecules that give cells structure and act as both enzymes and motors within cells. Proteins are long strings of amino acids folded in specific three-dimensional formations. There are twenty different animo acids in our bodies. DNA, the genetic material located in the cell nucleus, carries information for the order of the amino acids in each protein. Indeed, in the simplest sense, a gene is the...

The conversion of the information in DNA into proteins begins in the nucleus of cells with the synthesis of mRNA by transcription of DNA. In bacteria, the process begins when RNA polymerase recognizes and binds to a promoter...
