The LINC complex, consisting of interacting SUN and KASH proteins, mechanically couples nuclear contents to the cytoskeleton. In meiosis, the LINC complex transmits microtubule-generated forces to chromosome ends, driving the rapid chromosome movements ...

Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a pivotal role in facilitating tumour development, invasiveness, metastasis, and immunoevasive processes through dynamic ECM remodelling processes. Testican‐1 (SPOCK1), an excretory matricellular proteoglycan, is suggested to exert a role in the facilitation of ECM remodelling processes through interacting ...

SUN/KASH interactions facilitate force transmission across the nuclear envelope
LINC complexes (Linker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton), consisting of inner nuclear membrane SUN (Sad1, UNC-84) proteins and outer nuclear membrane KASH (Klarsicht, ANC-1, and Syne Homology) proteins, are essential for nuclear positioning, cell ...

Characterization of LINC Complex-mediated Regulation of Satellite Stem and Progenitor Cell Cycles
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is an inherited disorder characterized by skeletal muscle wasting and cardiomyopathy. EDMD is linked to mutations affecting proteins forming the Linker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton (LINC) complex.

Though cancer cells have been shown to have abnormal nuclear morphologies and responses to mechanical forces, the mechanisms of how mechanical stress is translated into cellular action and structural reorganization within the nuclear envelope are largely

ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...

During meiosis, homologous chromosomes undergo a dramatic movement in order to correctly align. This is a critical meiotic event but the molecular properties of this ‘chromosomal dance’ still remainunclear.

Mutations in LMNA modulate the lamin A--Nesprin-2 interaction and cause LINC complex alterations.
BackgroundIn eukaryotes the genetic material is enclosed by a continuous membrane system, the nuclear envelope (NE). Along the NE specific proteins assemble to form meshworks and mutations in these proteins have been described in a group of human ...

Investigating the Role of the LINC Complex on Skeletal Muscle Stem and Progenitor Cell Expansion
Muscle stem cells, or satellite cells (SCs), are required for skeletal muscle regeneration. Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), a debilitating muscle disorder, is associated with LINC complex mutations, a series of nuclear envelope proteins ...

LINC komplex: Spojník mezi integritou chromatinu a motilitou spermií [PDF]
The LINC complex (Linker of the Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) is a protein structure located in the nuclear membrane that connects the cytoskeleton with the nucleoskeleton.
