The mRNA molecule roams through the nucleus on its way out to the cytoplasm. mRNA encounters and is bound by many protein factors, from the moment it begins to emerge from RNA polymerase II and during its travel in the nucleoplasm, where it will come upon chromatin and nuclear bodies. Some of the protein factors that engage with the mRNA can process it, until finally reaching a mature state fit for export through the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Examining the lifecycle of mRNAs in living cells using mRNA tagging techniques opens a window into our understanding of the rules that drive the dynamics of gene expression from transcription to mRNA export.
