The Nuclear Envelope The nucleus is enveloped by a pair of membranes enclosing a lumen that is continuous with that of the endoplasmic reticulum. The inner membrane is stabilized by a meshwork of intermediate filament proteins called lamins . The nuclear envelope is perforated by thousands of nuclear pore complexes (NPC) that control the passage of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
