Nesprin-1α-Dependent Microtubule Nucleation from the Nuclear Envelope via Akap450 Is Necessary for Nuclear Positioning in Muscle Cells.

open access: yes, 2017
The nucleus is the main microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) in muscle cells due to the accumulation of centrosomal proteins and microtubule (MT) nucleation activity at the nuclear envelope (NE) [1-4].

Analyse von Nesprin-2 defizienten Mäuse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Nesprin-1 and Nesprin-2 (auch Enaptin and NUANCE genannt) sind Mitglieder der α-aktinin Superfamilie, die sich durch eine Aktin-bindende Domäne, einen elongierten Bereich mit Spektrindomänen und eine C-terminale Transmembranregion auszeichnen, mit der ...

Essential Role for Telomeric Repeat-Binding Factor 2 in Cardiac Development and Function. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB Bioadv
This schematic illustrates a paradigm shift in telomere biology, demonstrating that Trf2 is a mandatory orchestrator of heart development and function through pathways distinct from its canonical telomere protective role. ABSTRACT Telomere repeat‐binding factor 2 (Trf2) is essential for protecting our telomeres.

Syne2b/Nesprin-2 Is Required for Actin Organization and Epithelial Integrity During Epiboly Movement in Zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Syne2b/nesprin-2 is a giant protein implicated in tethering the nucleus to the cytoskeleton and plays an important role in maintaining cellular architecture.

Nesprins: from the nuclear envelope and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 2013
Nuclearenvelopespectrin-repeatproteins(Nesprins), are a novel family of nuclear and cytoskeletal proteins with rapidly expanding roles as intracellular scaffolds and linkers. Originally described as proteins that localise to the nuclear envelope (NE) and establish nuclear-cytoskeletal connections, nesprins have now been found to comprise a diverse ...

Force-dependent structural dynamics of the giant nesprin-2. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A
The nesprin protein family serves as a critical physical bridge between the cytoskeleton–a fundamental structural scaffold and mechanotransduction hub of the cell, and the nucleus–an intriguing and emerging mechanoresponsive element. Due to the external mechanical cues and the nucleo-cytoskeletal dynamics, the nesprins are physiologically under forces.

Nesprin-2 competes with RanBP2 for BICD2-CC3 binding.

open access: yes, 2023
(A) Schematic representation of the assay. (B-L) A purified RanBP2 fragment (aa 2148–2240) and/or Nesprin-2 fragment (for sequence see S1A Fig) plus BICD2-CC3 (residues 711–800) were mixed at a 1:1:1 molar ratio and analyzed for physical interactions by ...

The SUN2-nesprin-2 LINC complex and KIF20A function in the Golgi dispersal

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The morphology of the Golgi complex is influenced by the cellular context, which strictly correlates with nuclear functions; however, the mechanism underlying this association remains elusive.

The Nesprin-1/-2 ortholog ANC-1 regulates organelle positioning in C. elegans independently from its KASH or actin-binding domains

open access: yeseLife, 2021
KASH proteins in the outer nuclear membrane comprise the cytoplasmic half of linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complexes that connect nuclei to the cytoskeleton.
