The interior of the nucleus is filled with a gel-like liquid known as nucleoplasm.
-
Also present in the nucleoplasm are proteins known as polymerases, which pluck nucleotides from the soup as needed when copying DNA.
-
It comprises the cell-protoplasm and a nucleus imbedded in it whose substance is known as the nucleoplasm.

However, in contrast to Ins7/9 and 15, pre-40S particles in Ins3, 5, 11, 13 and 17 were strongly retained in the nucleoplasm, which suggests that the mutations involved affect the export competence of these particles, either in

Although LC3 is currently thought to function primarily in the cytosol, the site of autophagosome formation, EGFP-LC3 often appears to be enriched in the nucleoplasm relative to the cytoplasm in published fluorescence images.
