Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) provide the sole gateway for the exchange of material between nucleus and cytoplasm of interphase eukaryotic cells. They support two modes of transport: passive diffusion of ions, metabolites and intermediate-sized macromolecules, and facilitated, receptor-mediated translocation of proteins, RNA, and RNPs complexes. It is generally assumed that both modes of transp...
