Schematic description of the suggested translocation mechanism for active ERK2 into nucleus. (A) Simple diffusion for monomeric active ERK2. (B) Spontaneous active transport mechanism for explaining nuclear translocation of bulky dimeric ERK2. (C) Facilitated diffusion mechanism via nuclear pore complex for explaining bulky GFP-fused ERK2 in energy-independent pathway.
