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. The elongated nucleus which forms during the rapid oscillatory movement at meiotic prophase; characterized in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The part of the horsetail nucleus where telomeres cluster under the SPB and that leads horsetail movement. The horsetail nucleus is the elongated nucleus which forms during the rapid oscillatory movement at meiotic prophase; characterized in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane.
