The protection and preservation of the genetic material by tiny holes in the cell nucleus is crucial for healthy ageing. German researchers from the Synthetic Biophysics of Protein Disorder Group at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Department of Theoretical Biophysics at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics in Frankfurt am Main have literally filled a gap in our knowledge of the composition and operation of these nuclear pores.

The Genome Is Guarded by Wiggly ProteinsScientists have long been fascinated by the three-dimensional structure and function of nuclear pores in cells,
