A cellular model of TDP‐43 induces phosphorylated TDP‐43 aggregation with distinct changes in solubility and autophagy dysregulation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 18, Page 4870-4897, September 2025.
TDP‐43 protein plays a pathological role in sporadic and familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Here, we developed a cellular model overexpressing TDP‐43 with three mutations linked to familial ALS, termed ‘3X‐TDP‐43’. Mutant 3X‐TDP‐43 expression showed deficits in autophagy flux and colocalization with stress granules.

Origin of the nucleus and Ran-dependent transport to safeguard ribosome biogenesis in a chimeric cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: The origin of the nucleus is a central problem about the origin of eukaryotes. The common ancestry of nuclear pore complexes (NPC) and vesicle coating complexes indicates that the nucleus evolved via the modification of a pre-existing ...

MiR‐20a‐5p Inhibits Bladder Cancer Proliferation and Migration by Targeting KPNA2

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 16, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the 10 most common cancers in the world, and its recurrence and metastasis are the main causes of death in BC patients. Exploring the molecular mechanisms of BC pathogenesis and searching for new prognostic markers and therapeutic targets are important for improving patient prognosis.

Mitochondria and Endoplasmic Reticulum Contact Site as a Regulator of Proteostatic Stress Responses in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 7, July 2025.
Recent findings indicate that mitochondria‐associated membranes (MAMs), where the endoplasmic reticulum directly contacts the mitochondria, are a novel microdomain essential for cellular homeostasis, including proteostasis. We summarize the disruption of protein homeostasis and MAM alteration in neurodegenerative diseases, then discuss challenges and ...

Elucidation of the binding interaction interface between AAV serotype 11 capsid protein and host nuclear import proteins

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are widely acknowledged as versatile vectors for gene therapy due to their non-pathogenic nature, inherent capacity for tissue-specific targeting, and their potential for customizable engineering. The N terminus of the AAV

PexRAP inhibits PRDM16-mediated thermogenic gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
How the nuclear receptor PPARγ regulates the development of two functionally distinct types of adipose tissue, brown and white fat, as well as the browning of white fat, remains unclear.

Nucleocytoplasmic transport: taking an inventory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In eukaryotic cells, the enclosure of the genetic information in the nucleus allows the spatial and temporal separation of DNA replication and transcription from cytoplasmic protein synthesis.

Phylogenetic differences in content and intensity of periodic proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Many proteins exhibit sequence periodicity, often correlated with a visible structural periodicity. The statistical significance of such periodicity can be assessed by means of a chi-square-based test, with significance thresholds being calculated from ...

Overexpression of Kpnβ1 and Kpnα2 importin proteins in cancer derives from deregulated E2F activity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The Karyopherin superfamily comprises nuclear transport proteins, involved in the shuttling of certain cargo proteins into and out of the nucleus. Karyopherin β1 (Kpnβ1) and Karyopherin α2 (Kpnα2) are importin proteins, which work in concert to transport

The Pseudorabies Virus DNA Polymerase Accessory Subunit UL42 Directs Nuclear Transport of the Holoenzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) DNA replication occurs in the nuclei of infected cells and requires the viral DNA polymerase. The PRV DNA polymerase comprises a catalytic subunit, UL30, and an accessory subunit, UL42, that confers processivity to the enzyme ...
