Every second, hundreds to thousands of molecules move through thousands of nuclear pores in each of your cells. A new high-definition view reveals the machine in action.

Inside each of your cells lies a nucleus, its master command center. Protected inside each nucleus are your chromosomes, ...

Nuclear pore complexes are more dynamic than previously thought, reshaping our understanding of a vital transport process in cells. An international study led by the University of Basel (Switzerland) ...

In situ model of the nuclear pore complex transport barrier: Tethered within the pore are highly dynamic protein threads termed FG Nups (green). Under physiological conditions, cargo-carrying ...

Composite structure of the symmetric core of the nuclear pore complex, shown in a cartoon representation. The composite structure was generated by sequential unbiased searches for each protein subunit ...

When it comes to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and certain forms of dementia, researchers have known that protein quality control and damage to the nuclear ...
