Nuclear Envelope, Nuclear Lamina, and Inherited Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The nuclear envelope is composed of the nuclear membranes, nuclear lamina, and nuclear pore complexes. In recent years, mutations in nuclear-envelope proteins have been shown to cause a surprisingly wide array of inherited diseases.

Current Methods and Pipelines for Image-Based Quantitation of Nuclear Shape and Nuclear Envelope Abnormalities

open access: yesCells, 2022
Any given cell type has an associated “normal” nuclear morphology, which is important to maintain proper cellular functioning and safeguard genomic integrity.

Temporal Changes in Nuclear Envelope Permeability during Semi-Closed Mitosis in Dictyostelium Amoebae

open access: yesCells, 2023
The Amoebozoan Dictyostelium discoideum exhibits a semi-closed mitosis in which the nuclear membranes remain intact but become permeabilized to allow tubulin and spindle assembly factors to access the nuclear interior.

Dystonia and the Nuclear Envelope [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2005
Mutations in torsinA cause dominantly inherited early-onset torsion dystonia in humans. In this issue of Neuron, Goodchild et al. show that torsinA knockout and knockin mice have similar phenotypes, which suggests that the mutant torsinA allele causes disease because it has decreased function. The experiments also highlight the possible role of nuclear

Dynein at the nuclear envelope [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2010
Most cellular organelles are positioned through active transport by motor proteins. The authors discuss the evidence that dynein has important cell cycle‐regulated functions in this context at the nuclear envelope.

Automated analysis of cell migration and nuclear envelope rupture in confined environments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Recent in vitro and in vivo studies have highlighted the importance of the cell nucleus in governing migration through confined environments. Microfluidic devices that mimic the narrow interstitial spaces of tissues have emerged as important tools to ...

Cell migration in dense microenvironments

open access: yesComptes Rendus Biologies, 2023
The nucleus has been viewed as a passenger during cell migration that functions merely to protect the genome. However, increasing evidence shows that the nucleus is an active organelle, constantly sensing the surrounding environment and translating ...

The Plant Nuclear Envelope and Its Role in Gene Transcription

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Chromosomes are dynamic entities in the eukaryotic nucleus. During cell development and in response to biotic and abiotic change, individual sections as well as entire chromosomes re-organise and reposition within the nuclear space.
