Permeating the nuclear pore complex [PDF]
The extensive and multifaceted traffic between nucleus and cytoplasm is handled by a single type of macromolecular assembly called the nuclear pore complex (NPC). While being readily accessible to ions and metabolites, the NPC imposes stringent selectivity on the passage of proteins and RNA, tightly regulating their traffic between the two major ...

Nuclear pore complexes as hubs for gene regulation
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs), the channels connecting the nucleus with the cytoplasm, are the largest protein structures of the nuclear envelope. In addition to their role in regulating nucleocytoplasmic transport, increasing evidence shows that these ...

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Nuclear pore complex and stem cell homeostasis
As a channel for mediating exchange between the nucleus and cytoplasm, the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a macromolecular complex composed of about 30 nucleoporins.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Nuclear Pores: David and Goliath in nuclear transport [PDF]
AbstractThe small GTP-binding protein Ran has been implicated in protein import into, and mRNA export from, the nucleus. A recently identified ‘giant’ nuclear pore complex protein, Nup358, binds GTP–Ran.

Proteasomes tether to two distinct sites at the nuclear pore complex
Significance This study compares the native structures of cytosolic and nuclear proteasomes, visualized directly within cells. The assembly states and functional states of proteasomes in each compartment were similar, indicating comparable levels of ...

Evolutionarily Conserved Sequence Features Regulate the Formation of the FG Network at the Center of the Nuclear Pore Complex. [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is the portal for bidirectional transportation of cargos between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. While most of the structural elements of the NPC, i.e.

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
