The nuclear lamina is a hub for the nuclear function of Jacob
Jacob is a synapto-nuclear messenger protein that couples NMDAR activity to CREB-dependent gene expression. In this study, we investigated the nuclear distribution of Jacob and report a prominent targeting to the nuclear envelope that requires NMDAR ...

The nuclear localization signal (NLS) and nuclear export signal (NES) are key signatures of proteins for controlling nuclear import and export. The NIb protein of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) is an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) that is absolutely ...

Nuclear phosphoinositide signaling regulates messenger RNA export [PDF]
Messenger RNA export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm plays an essential role in linking transcription to translation and consequently regulation of protein expression. mRNA export requires a series of events: pre-mRNA processing, ribonucleoprotein targeting to the NPC (nuclear pore complexes), and translocation through nuclear pores to the cytoplasm.

Monoubiquitination: The Signal for p53 Nuclear Export? [PDF]
The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway has become an increasingly important regulatory mechanism for protein function. Countless proteins are degraded by the addition of polymeric ubiquitin chains, but more recently, monoubiquitination has emerged as a mechanism for regulatory functions other than proteasomal degradation.

Analysis of the Activity of Nuclear Export Signals Using Fluorescent BSA Conjugates
Here we demonstrate that fluorescein-labeled BSA conjugated with a mixture of nuclear import and export signals can be used to evaluate export activity.

Impaired Nuclear Export of Polyglutamine-Expanded Androgen Receptor in Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy. [PDF]
Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is a neuromuscular disease caused by polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion in the androgen receptor (AR). Prior studies have highlighted the importance of AR nuclear localization in SBMA pathogenesis; therefore, in ...

Identification of essential sequences for cellular localization in BRMS1 metastasis suppressor. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Breast cancer metastasis suppressor 1 (BRMS1) reduces the number and the size of secondary tumours in a mouse model without affecting the growth of the primary foci upon its re-expression.

Nuclear DDX3 expression predicts poor outcome in colorectal and breast cancer [PDF]
Purpose: DEAD box protein 3 (DDX3) is an RNA helicase with oncogenic properties that shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus. The majority of DDX3 is found in the cytoplasm, but a subset of tumors has distinct nuclear DDX3 localization of yet unknown ...

NLSdb—major update for database of nuclear localization signals and nuclear export signals [PDF]
NLSdb is a database collecting nuclear export signals (NES) and nuclear localization signals (NLS) along with experimentally annotated nuclear and non-nuclear proteins. NES and NLS are short sequence motifs related to protein transport out of and into the nucleus. The updated NLSdb now contains 2253 NLS and introduces 398 NES.

Mechanisms of Nuclear Export in Cancer and Resistance to Chemotherapy [PDF]
YesTumour suppressor proteins, such as p53, BRCA1, and ABC, play key roles in preventing the development of a malignant phenotype, but those that function as transcriptional regulators need to enter the nucleus in order to function.
