Cell Nuclei: Function, Transport and Receptors
A section of Cells (ISSN 2073-4409).
Section Information
The main function of the nucleus is to control cell growth and reproduction via regulating gene expression, DNA replication, and protein production. This section of Cells aims to publish findings that provide novel phenomena and/or conceptual advances to the field. Relevant research topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Gene regulation
- Transcription
- Translation
- Cell growth
- Cell reproduction
- Nuclear structures
- Nuclear transport and assembly
- Nuclear receptors
