Model for phase I and II of NEBD. (Top) cross section of the NE through the center of an NPC. (Bottom) top view from the cytoplasmic side of the NE. Lamina, dark gray; nuclear membranes, transparent gray; NPC, middle gray; permeability barrier of NPC, light gray. The channel diameter indicated by dashed lines corresponds to the apparent diffusion channel calculated from dextran fluxes. (A) immature oocytes, (B) phase I oocytes, (C) phase II oocytes. Bar, 50 nm.
