It has long been appreciated that communication between the nucleus and the cytoplasm of a cell occurs through the nuclear pores. Regulation of this communication has remained a mystery. A breakthrough in our understanding of this regulation was recently presented by Carmen Perez- Terzic, Jason Pyle, Marisa Jaconi, Lisa Stehnc-Bittel, and David Clapham of Mayo Clinic. Using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy (AFM), they demonstrated the presence of a small plug within the nuclear pore that was present under certain physiologic circumstances. This “plug“ may regulate the movement of molecules through the pore.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ion beam milling techniques are mature nanoscale measurement technologies, whereas atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a developing technology generating intense interest in the scientific community for basic research and development. These techniques have generally existed in separate worlds. This article discusses a capability that marries these technologies through an instrument recently introduced by Nanonics, the 3TB4000.
