Cargo molecules are transported through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). Small molecules can pass by diffusion, but there is a permeability barrier for larger molecules, with a relative molecular ...

Even those early images of the nuclear pore “are so dramatic,” Milligan says. “Everyone is drawn to them. They’re like little flowers.” Images produced by Milligan and others over the next decade ...

I'm interested in the physics of cell division and related biophysics. My current projects address motor protein dynamics and microtubule length regulation, cytoskeletal active matter, mitotic spindle ...

"Yeast nuclear pores have long been known to have a 'central ... which could provide an even clearer picture of nuclear transport dynamics. This study offers a new perspective on how cells ...
