[[Nucleoporin|Nucleoporins]] (NUP) are constituents of the nuclear pore complex which regulates the flow of macromolecules across the nuclear envelope. They are named according to their molecular weights. They contain a domain which binds the protein RAN (RANBD), N-terminal domain (NTD) and C-terminal domain (CTD)<ref>PMID:9159086</ref>. <br /> | [[Nucleoporin|Nucleoporins]] (NUP) are constituents of the nuclear pore complex which regulates the flow of macromolecules across the nuclear envelope.
