title: Nucleocytoplasmic transport of proteins and control of cellular function.
abstract: Nucleocytoplasmic transport of proteins occurs through pores embedded in the nuclear envelope. Recent studies have defined the cytoplasmic factors required for signal-mediated import of nuclear proteins. Considerable progress has been made in understanding the mechanism of nuclear export of proteins by the identification of specific signal sequences needed for export. Regulatory molecules have been shown to adopt novel mechanisms to control their entry into the nucleus and thereby regulate their functions.
