Arabidopsis NMD3 is required for nuclear export of 60S ribosomal subunits and affects secondary cell wall thickening. [PDF]
NMD3 is required for nuclear export of the 60S ribosomal subunit in yeast and vertebrate cells, but no corresponding function of NMD3 has been reported in plants.

Model system to study classical nuclear export signals [PDF]
Signal-mediated protein transport through the nuclear pore complex is of considerable interest in the field of molecular pharmaceutics. Nuclear localization signals can be used to target genes/antisense delivery systems to the nucleus. Studying nuclear export is useful in enhancing the expression and the efficiency of action of these therapeutic agents.

Antileukemic Activity of Nuclear Export Inhibitors that Spare Normal Hematopoietic Cells [PDF]
Drugs that target the chief mediator of nuclear export, chromosome region maintenance 1 protein (CRM1) have potential as therapeutics for leukemia, but existing CRM1 inhibitors show variable potencies and a broad range of cytotoxic effects.

Identification of Nuclear Export Signals in Antizyme-1 [PDF]
Antizyme-1 (AZ1) is a protein that negatively regulates polyamine synthesis by inhibiting the key synthetic enzyme ornithine decarboxylase and targeting it for degradation by the 26 S proteasome. Recent work shows that antizyme protein translocates to the nucleus during mouse development (Gritli-Linde, A., Nilssom, J., Bohlooly, Y.

Mechanisms of Progesterone Receptor Export from Nuclei: Role of Nuclear Localization Signal, Nuclear Export Signal, and Ran Guanosine Triphosphate [PDF]
Steroid hormone receptors are, in most cases, mainly nuclear proteins that undergo a continuous nucleocytoplasmic shuttling. The mechanism of the nuclear export of these proteins remains largely unknown. To approach this problem experimentally in vivo, we have prepared cell lines permanently coexpressing the wild-type nuclear progesterone receptor (PR)

Huntingtin contains a highly conserved nuclear export signal [PDF]
Huntington's disease (HD), is a genetic neurodegenerative disease characterized by a DNA CAG triplet repeat expansion in the first exon of the disease gene, HD. CAG DNA expansion results in a polyglutamine tract expansion in mutant huntingtin protein. Wild-type and mutant full-length huntingtin have been detected in the nucleus, but elevated levels of ...

Specific inhibition of the Survivin–CRM1 interaction by peptide-modified molecular tweezers
Survivin’s dual function as apoptosis inhibitor and regulator of cell proliferation is mediated via its interaction with the export receptor CRM1. Here authors report a strategy addressing its dimer interface overlapping with the nuclear export signal ...

Inhibition of cellular protein secretion by norwalk virus nonstructural protein p22 requires a mimic of an endoplasmic reticulum export signal. [PDF]
Protein trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus is central to cellular homeostasis. ER export signals are utilized by a subset of proteins to rapidly exit the ER by direct uptake into COPII vesicles for transport to the ...

The Human Tap Nuclear RNA Export Factor Contains a Novel Transportin-dependent Nuclear Localization Signal That Lacks Nuclear Export Signal Function [PDF]
The human Tap protein mediates the sequence-specific nuclear export of RNAs containing the constitutive transport element and is likely also critical for general mRNA export. Here, we demonstrate that a previously defined arginine-rich nuclear localization signal (NLS) present in Tap acts exclusively via the transportin import factor.
