title: Structure and molecular organization of the nucleolus.
abstract: The aim of this paper is to give a short review on the nucleolus. In particular, we focused on the relationship of nucleolar ultrastructure with rRNA synthesis and processing. We also gave rapid data on organization of rRNA genes. Finally, we also focused on AgNOR proteins and the organization of "AgNOR granules".
