HIV-1 Vpr antagonizes innate immune activation by targeting karyopherin-mediated NF-κB/IRF3 nuclear transport

open access: yeseLife, 2020
HIV-1 must replicate in cells that are equipped to defend themselves from infection through intracellular innate immune systems. HIV-1 evades innate immune sensing through encapsidated DNA synthesis and encodes accessory genes that antagonize specific ...

Auxiliary barrier function of karyopherins at the Nuclear Pore Complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are highly selective gateways that mediate nucleocytoplasmic transport (NCT) in eukaryotic cells. Recent discoveries have shown that leaky NPCs and defective NCT are linked to aging, neurodegenerative disorders, and viral ...

IPO5 promotes the proliferation and tumourigenicity of colorectal cancer cells by mediating RASAL2 nuclear transportation

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2019
Background Karyopherin nuclear transport receptors play important roles in tumour development and drug resistance and have been reported as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for tumour treatment.

The Karyopherin proteins, Crm1 and Karyopherin β1, are overexpressed in cervical cancer and are critical for cancer cell survival and proliferation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2009
AbstractThe Karyopherin proteins are involved in nucleo‐cytoplasmic trafficking and are critical for protein and RNA subcellular localization. Recent studies suggest they are important in nuclear envelope component assembly, mitosis and replication. Since these are all critical cellular functions, alterations in the expression of the Karyopherins may ...

Importin-β modulates the permeability of the nuclear pore complex in a Ran-dependent manner

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Soluble karyopherins of the importin-β (impβ) family use RanGTP to transport cargos directionally through the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Whether impβ or RanGTP regulate the permeability of the NPC itself has been unknown.

Positional scanning synthesis of a Peptoid library yields new inducers of apoptosis that target Karyopherins and Tubulin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We describe the synthesis of a library of 11 638 N-alkylglycine peptoid trimers in a positional scanning format with adjustment of reaction conditions to account for different reactivities of the monomer building blocks. Evaluation of the library by high-

Viral Appropriation: Laying Claim to Host Nuclear Transport Machinery

open access: yesCells, 2019
Protein nuclear transport is an integral process to many cellular pathways and often plays a critical role during viral infection. To overcome the barrier presented by the nuclear membrane and gain access to the nucleus, virally encoded proteins have ...

Brownian dynamics simulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport: a coarse-grained model for the functional state of the nuclear pore complex. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2011
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) regulates molecular traffic across the nuclear envelope (NE). Selective transport happens on the order of milliseconds and the length scale of tens of nanometers; however, the transport mechanism remains elusive. Central to

The HIV capsid mimics karyopherin engagement of FG-nucleoporins. [PDF]

open access: yesNature
AbstractHIV can infect non-dividing cells because the viral capsid can overcome the selective barrier of the nuclear pore complex and deliver the genome directly into the nucleus1,2. Remarkably, the intact HIV capsid is more than 1,000 times larger than the size limit prescribed by the diffusion barrier of the nuclear pore3. This barrier in the central
