Baculovirus Nuclear Import: Open, Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC) Sesame

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Baculoviruses are one of the largest viruses that replicate in the nucleus of their host cells. During infection, the rod-shape, 250-nm long nucleocapsid delivers its genome into the nucleus.

Actin assembly ruptures the nuclear envelope by prying the lamina away from nuclear pores and nuclear membranes in starfish oocytes.

open access: yes, 2020
The nucleus of oocytes (germinal vesicle) is unusually large and its nuclear envelope (NE) is densely packed with nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) stockpiled for embryonic development. We showed that breakdown of this specialized NE is mediated by an Arp2/3-

A novel function for the Caenorhabditis elegans torsin OOC-5 in nucleoporin localization and nuclear import. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Torsin proteins are AAA+ ATPases that localize to the endoplasmic reticular/nuclear envelope (ER/NE) lumen. A mutation that markedly impairs torsinA function causes the CNS disorder DYT1 dystonia. Abnormalities of NE membranes have been linked to torsinA

Permeability of Single Nuclear Pores [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1999
In this first application of optical single transporter recording (OSTR), a recently established technique for optically monitoring the activity of single transporters in membrane patches (Tschödrich-Rotter and Peters. 1998. J. Microsc. 192:114-125), the passive permeability of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) was measured for a homologous series of ...

The Structure of the Nuclear Pore Complex (An Update).

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 2019
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) serves as the sole bidirectional gateway of macromolecules in and out of the nucleus. Owing to its size and complexity (∼1,000 protein subunits, ∼110 MDa in humans), the NPC has remained one of the foremost challenges for ...

Role of SAGA in the asymmetric segregation of DNA circles during yeast ageing

open access: yeseLife, 2014
In eukaryotes, intra-chromosomal recombination generates DNA circles, but little is known about how cells react to them. In yeast, partitioning of such circles to the mother cell at mitosis ensures their loss from the population but promotes replicative ...

Exo70-Mediated Recruitment of Nucleoporin Nup62 at the Leading Edge of Migrating Cells is Required for Cell Migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nucleoporin Nup62 localizes at the central channel of the nuclear pore complex and is essential for nucleocytoplasmic transport. Through its FG-repeat domain, Nup62 regulates nuclear pore permeability and binds nuclear transport receptors.

Protocol to image and quantify nuclear pore complexes using high-resolution laser scanning confocal microscopy

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: Nuclear pore complexes are pathways for nuclear-cytoplasmic communication that participate in chromatin organization. Here, we present a protocol to image and quantify the number of nuclear pore complexes in cells.

Nucleoporin downregulation modulates progenitor differentiation independent of nuclear pore numbers

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Nucleoporins (NUPs) comprise nuclear pore complexes, gateways for nucleocytoplasmic transport. As primary human keratinocytes switch from the progenitor state towards differentiation, most NUPs are strongly downregulated, with NUP93 being the most ...

The subnuclear localization of tRNA ligase in yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Yeast tRNA ligase is an enzyme required for tRNA splicing. A study by indirect immune fluorescence shows that this enzyme is localized in the cell nucleus. At higher resolution, studies using indirect immune electron microscopy show this nuclear location
