Extended Data Fig. 7. Computed parameters for the nucleoporin assembly kinetics and the remarkable difference between postmitotic and interphase assembly.

Extended Data Fig. 7

a, An example of computed quantities (Nup358, interphase assembly). b, Illustrations of median assembly time of nucleoporins in postmitotic (left) and interphase (right) assembly superimposed onto a simplified scheme of the NPC. The median assembly time of individual nucleoporins are displayed on a pseudo-colour scale. c, Plots of Nup assembly duration along the median assembly time for postmitotic and interphase assembly pathways. The crosses indicate the 95% confidence intervals. The dots are the mean values. Values are listed in Supplementary Table 3. The long straight line shows the result of a linear regression to the mean values. The gray area is the 95% confidence interval of the linear regression. Theoretically, for a sequential assembly mechanism where late steps depend on early steps, the observed ensemble kinetics of a late binding protein must contain the history of all previous events (see Methods for details). Indeed, postmitotic assembly showed a strong positive linear correlation, indicating a sequential assembly mechanism, which for example implies that Nup62 is incorporated into the NPC before Tpr can bind.
