Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) create large conduits for cargo transport between the nucleus and cytoplasm across the nuclear envelope (NE)<sup>1-3</sup>. These multi-megadalton structures are composed of about thirty different nucleoporins that are distributed in three main substructures (the inner, cytoplasmic and nucleoplasmic rings) around the central transport channel<sup>4-6</sup>. Here we use cryo-electron tomography on DLD-1 cells that were prepared using cryo-focused-ion-beam milling to ...[more]
