Nucleus - Cajal Bodies

Located within the cell nucleus these bodies have also been called: nucleolar accessory bodies, coiled body, gems. Their size is about 0.1 - 2.0 microns, numbering about 1 to 10 in each nucleus. Proposed sites where small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) and small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNPs) are modified.

Ramón y Cajal first identified and christened them "nucleolar accessory bodies".[1]


(A) HeLa cells expressing an FP–coilin fusion protein (arrows indicate Cajal bodies).

(B) Fluorescence micrograph of purified CBs immunolabeled with anticoilin antibodies.

(C) Field emission scanning electron micrograph of a purified CB.

(D) Transmission electron micrograph of a purified CB. Coilin is immunolabeled with 5 nm gold (arrows) and SMN is immunolabeled with 10 nm gold (arrowheads).

Bars: (A and B) 10 μm; (C) 500 nm; (D) 200 nm.

SMN1 - (5q13) encodes a 38 kD protein located in Cajal bodies associated with Spinal muscular atrophy.

Fragile X protein (FMRP) isoforms 6 and 12 (ISO6 and 12) have been localized to the Cajal bodies in cultured human cells.[2] Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited mental retardation and autism.
