Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
Proteins large enough to require assistance can enter the nucleus only if they carry a nuclear localisation signal.
Answer: C
The signal is recognised by an importin that escorts the protein through the pore. Without it a large protein remains in the cytosol however abundant it may be there. Adding such a signal experimentally will redirect a protein into the nucleus.
