A recent study showed that the HCMV virion contains not only DNA, but also four species of mRNA, indicating that this virus is more ... tegument structures to nuclear pore 2,3.

This communication is regulated by the nuclear pores. Each nuclear pore is a large complex of proteins that allows small molecules and ions to freely pass, or diffuse, into or out of the nucleus.

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 ...

In a study in Nature last week (March 15), researchers report that they have created a 3-D model of the nuclear pore complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast cells. The architecture of the gateway, ...

Study finds that protein creation and disposal systems control the amount of nuclear pore complexes in cells, which may lead to new insights about cancer and neurodegeneration. The nuclei in our cells ...

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 ...
