A-tisket, a-tasket, what a beautiful nuclear basket

Cell. 2024 Sep 19;187(19):5225-5227. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2024.08.030.

Abstract

Nuclear pore complexes are massive protein gateways that control molecular exchange between the nucleus and cytoplasm. In this issue of Cell, Singh et al. provide the first high-resolution views of the elusive nuclear basket, which extends deep into the nucleus to coordinate functions from genome organization to mRNP export.
