Fig 8. Complexes have been observed associated with a small number of thin multilamellar membranes within an indentation.

(A) Low magnification shows a complex (arrow) in an indentation with variable densities. (B) High magnification shows that the complex is beneath the outer nuclear membrane (blue arrows) and the presumed core (asterisk) stains darkly with similar texture to the adjacent cytoplasm. A lighter staining circular region of unknown origin bridges the nuclear envelope with a small accumulation of multilamellar membranes. The molecular events within the complex are unknown, although the proximity of the domains is consistent with breakdown of the inner nuclear membrane. An intact nuclear pore (NP) appears not to be disturbed by the presence of the complex. Day 15 lens 400 μm from the capsule-fiber cell interface.
