Document Summary

Eukaryotes have dna in double membrane bounded nucleus. Nucleus contains mot of genes in eukaryotes (some in mitochondria and chloroplasts: enclosed by double membrane nuclear envelope. Envelope perforated with pores that regulate entry and exits of proteins and rnas and large complexes of macromolecules: except at the pores, nuclear side lined by nuclear lamina. Network protein filaments to maintain nucleus shape: dna organized into chromosomes that are in form of chromatin until cells begin to divide when chromosomes begin to coil and be distinguishable. *sex cells have 23 chromosomes: nucleolus inside nucleus and here rrna is synthesized from dna instructions. Also here proteins made in cytoplasm assembled with rrna into large and small units of ribosomes. Subunits exit nucleus through pores where they join into ribosome: nucleus synthesizes mrna from dna instructions and then goes to cytoplasm through nuclear pores. In cytoplasm ribosomes translate mrna code into primary structure of the specific polypeptide.
