Nucleocytoplasmic transport: a thermodynamic mechanism [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
The nuclear pore supports molecular communication between cytoplasm and nucleus in eukaryotic cells. Selective transport of proteins is mediated by soluble receptors, whose regulation by the small GTPase Ran leads to cargo accumulation in, or depletion ...

Murine leukemia virus infection of non-dividing dendritic cells is dependent on nucleoporins.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
Retroviral reverse transcription starts within the capsid and uncoating and reverse transcription are mutually dependent. There is still debate regarding the timing and cellular location of HIV's uncoating and reverse transcription and whether it occurs ...

Nuclear actin structure regulates chromatin accessibility

open access: yesNature Communications
Polymerized β-actin may provide a structural basis for chromatin accessibility and actin transport into the nucleus can guide mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation.

Balance of osmotic pressures determines the volume of the cell nucleus

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
The volume of the cell nucleus varies across cell-types and species, and is commonly thought to be determined by the size of the genome and degree of chromatin compaction.

Active Nuclear Import of Mammalian Cell-Expressible DNA Origami

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2023
DNA origami enables the creation of complex 3D shapes from genetic material. Future uses could include the delivery of genetic instructions to cells, but nuclear import remains a major barrier to gene delivery due to the impermeability of the nuclear ...

A conserved role for the ESCRT membrane budding complex in LINE retrotransposition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
Long interspersed nuclear element-1s (LINE-1s, or L1s) are an active family of retrotransposable elements that continue to mutate mammalian genomes.

Keratin Dynamics: Modeling the Interplay between Turnover and Transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Keratin are among the most abundant proteins in epithelial cells. Functions of the keratin network in cells are shaped by their dynamical organization. Using a collection of experimentally-driven mathematical models, different hypotheses for the turnover

Ultrastructural identification of developing proximal tubules based on three‐dimensional reconstruction

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Background The cellular mechanisms involved in the development of proximal tubules are not only associated with morphogenesis in fetal life, but also with restoration of damaged tubules in adulthood.

Quantitative Nucleocytoplasmic Transport Assays in Cellular Models of Neurodegeneration

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2020
Nucleocytoplasmic transport deficits are suggested to play a role in neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Given the importance and complexity of this process, understanding when these aberrations occur and which ...

Fragile X–Related Protein 1 Regulates Nucleoporin Localization in a Cell Cycle–Dependent Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are embedded in the nuclear envelope (NE) where they ensure the transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
