Isolation and characterization of new <it>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</it> mutants perturbed in nuclear pore complex assembly

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are essential for facilitated, directional nuclear transport; however, the mechanism by which ~30 different nucleoporins (nups) are assembled into NPCs is unknown. We combined a genetic strategy in <i...
