Nuclear protein sorting occurs through nuclear pore complexes or NPCs embedded in the nuclear membrane.
Each NPC is a tight aqueous pore that allows the selective transport of folded peptides by dilating the channel diameter to accommodate large molecules as they squeeze through it.
Nuclear protein sorting occurs in two steps — recognition and transport.
