Popis: | Nucleocytoplasmic transport is a bi-directional process mediated by the nuclear pore complex (NPC), which results in a segregation of cytoplasmic and nuclear macromolecules within cells. Some progress has been made in understanding the mechanistic basis of this selective transport phenomenon. In particular, cryo-electron microscopy of frozen-hydrated nuclear envelopes coupled with image processing and labeling studies, has provided a glimpse of the transporter at the center of the NPC. |
