The nuclear envelope (NE) (also known as the perinuclear envelope, nuclear membrane, nucleolemma orkaryotheca) is a double lipid bilayer that encloses the genetic material in eukaryotic cells. The nuclear envelope also serves as the physical barrier, separating the contents of the nucleus (DNA in particular) from the cytosol (cytoplasm). Many nuclear pores are inserted in the nuclear envelope, which facilitate and regulate the exchange of materials (proteins such as transcription factors, and RNA) between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.

Otherwise, the Nuclear membrane is a barrier that separates contents of the nucleus and cytoplasm.

The nuclear membrane functions to selectively regulate what goes in and out of the nucleus.

In particular it transports a variety of proteins and molecules in and out of the nucleus, it keeps DNA and chromatin inside the nucleus and transports a variety of RNA species outside the Nucleus.

The nuclear membrane is the part of the cell that is in charge of regulate what enters and what gets out of the cell, so, it has a protective function. It also has the job of keeping the contents of the cell together.

The nuclear membrane surrounds the nucleus of a cell. Its main function is to regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cell, between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
