Interphase nucleus

The interphase nucleus (also working nucleus or (outdated) resting nucleus ) is the nucleus of a cell that is not in division or is currently preparing for it. It is therefore in the interphase of the cell cycle. The interphase nucleus does not reveal the organization of DNA in chromosomes . The concept of the interphase nucleus is mainly used in cytogenetics , which primarily considers the shape and structure of the chromosomes. In cytology and histology , an interphase nucleus is often called a nucleus or just nucleus.
