In the cells of organisms such as animals and plants, the genome is stored in a nucleus. This is surrounded by a nuclear envelope 6 composed of lipid membranes, proteins, and multi-protein structures ...
The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear envelope (NE), which is formed by two juxtaposed membranes, termed the inner and outer nuclear membranes. A protein meshwork of intermediate filament proteins ...
• Background Higher plants are, like animals, organisms in which successful completion of the cell cycle requires the breakdown and reformation of the nuclear envelope in a highly controlled manner.
