Abstract

Nucleoporins are the constituents of the nuclear pore complex, but they are also known to shuttle to the nuclear interior, the function of which is unclear. In a recent issue of Nature Cell Biology, Wang et al.'s mechanistic studies of leukemogenic fusion proteins that contain nucleoporins suggest that they have a direct role in transcription.
