Ontology: Cellular Component (GO:0005634)
Definition: A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.
Synonyms: cell nucleus

This table lists the methods used to annotate genes either directly to the term
nucleus (2090 genes)
or to its variants containing one or more
qualifiers (1 gene). Note that some genes may have been annotated by more than one method so the numbers in the table below may not add up to the totals given here.
