Brownian Dynamics Simulation of Nucleocytoplasmic Transport: A Coarse-Grained Model for the Functional State of the Nuclear Pore Complex
Figure 10
The y-component of a cargo-complex trajectory during ∼2.5 ms transport through the pore.
The NPC structure is sketched on the right to illustrate the corresponding location of the cargo-complex within the NPC. It can be seen that the cargo-complex jumps back and forth tens of times before it released in the nuclear basket. The majority of its time is spent in the central channel.
