Oryzias latipes      Gemini of cajal body


※ Gemini of cajal body introduction

    Eukaryotic cells are inhomogeneously crowded with biological macromolecules (proteins and nucleic acids) and often contain numerous cellular bodies, including proteinaceous membrane-less organelles (PMLOs), They are formed as a result of highly regulated and reversible liquid-liquid demixing phase separation and represent condensed liquid droplets, which are invariantly enriched in intrinsically disordered proteins (1). Gemini of Cajal bodies, also called as Gemini of coiled bodies or nuclear gems, is a kind of these bodies located in Nucleus of spherical shape, It do not contain snRNPs. The function of nuclear gems is still unknown, may be related to further maturation, storage or recycling of splicing factors (1).
