Sickle-cell disease is associated with a number of acute and chronic health problems‚ such as severe infections‚ attacks of severe pain‚ stroke‚ and an increased risk of death.

The nucleus is a large membrane bound organelle. Most cells have a single nucleus though skeletal muscle can have more than one (multinucleate) or some cells such as red blood cells have no nucleus. The nucleus contains the genetic material and is where DNA replication and RNA transcription occur. The nucleus is bound by a membrane which contains nuclear pores. These pores allow RNA molecules and proteins to move in and out of the nucleus. However‚ this process is selective and is energy dependent
