The nuclear pores are tiny holes in the the nuclear membrane surrounding the nucleus of a cell, which allow the movement of solluable materials through the nuclear membrane, in and out of the nucleus.

The analogy of a nuclear pore is that if it were a factory, the nuclear pore is like the wall around the manager's office. These walls contain all plans that tell the workers in the cytoplasm what to make and the quantity it should make.

Do large proteins containing a nuclear localization signal bind to the nuclear pore and enter the nucleus without any expenditure of energy?

No, proteins with a nuclear localization signal require energy to actively transport through the nuclear pore complex into the nucleus. They are not able to enter the nucleus passively. The binding and translocation through the nuclear pore are facilitated by specific transport receptors and require energy in the form of GTP hydrolysis.


Is DNA the same as a nuclear pore?

DNA is cause of nuclear pore (hole between two nuclear membrane) appearance. The single-stranded DNA located in pore annulus initiate nucleoporins assembly building native structure of pore complex ( please see details in Kuvichkin V.V., 2011, J. Membr. Biol. v. 241(3), pp.109-116).
