Cargo molecules are transported through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs ... a low electron density structure that fills electron micrographs of nuclear pores. Thus a sieve-like structure is formed ...

This exchange is regulated by a large protein complex called the nuclear pore complex (NPC), which ... from the limitations of microscopy. The structure of the NPC has been determined by cryo ...

Video imaging by high-speed AFM captures native nuclear pore complexes at work; the inset scale bar is 10 nanometers. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the accuracy of news ...

Instead, large groupings of more than 1,000 individual protein molecules called nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) pepper the dividing membrane, serving as gateways for materials and messages entering ...

A known membrane-remodeling complex earns a newly identified role as a quality-assurance director during the assembly of nuclear pores. Kerry served as The Scientist’s news director until 2021. Before ...

This microscopic metropolis relies on an intricate gateway - facilitated by nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) within the nuclear envelope - to control its molecular traffic. New research from the ...
