Nuclear export of mRNAs requires loading the mRNP to the transporter Mex67/Mtr2 in the nucleoplasm, controlled access to the pore by the basket-localised TREX-2 complex and mRNA release at the cytoplasmic site by the DEAD-box RNA helicase Dbp5 ...

Exotic mitotic mechanisms [PDF]
The emergence of eukaryotes around two billion years ago provided new challenges for the chromosome segregation machineries: the physical separation of multiple large and linear chromosomes from the microtubule-organizing centres by the nuclear envelope.

Decoding the dual role of autophagy in cancer through transcriptional and epigenetic regulation
Transcriptional and epigenetic regulation controls autophagy, which exerts context‐dependent effects on cancer: Autophagy suppresses tumorigenesis by maintaining cellular homeostasis or promotes tumor progression by supporting survival under stress. In this “In a Nutshell” article, we explore the intricate mechanisms of the dual function of autophagy ...

The Nuclear Pore Complex: A Target for NS3 Protease of Dengue and Zika Viruses
During flavivirus infection, some viral proteins move to the nucleus and cellular components are relocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Thus, the integrity of the main regulator of the nuclear-cytoplasmic transport, the nuclear pore complex (NPC ...

Effect of inhomogeneous surface relaxivity, pore geometry and internal field gradient on NMR logging:exact and perturbative theories and numerical investigations [PDF]
Nuclear magnetic resonance is widely used as a probe of pore geometry and fluid composition in well logging. One of the critical assumptions often made is that the diffusion of fluid molecules is sufficiently fast to warrant the condition for direct mapping between the surface-enhanced relaxation rate and the pore geometry.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Cell fate is correlated to mechanotransduction, in which forces transmitted by the cytoskeleton filaments alter the nuclear shape, affecting transcription factor import/export, cells transcription activity and chromatin distribution.

Oxalate-Induced and Cell-Cycle-Dependent Expression of Nuclear Pore Complex Oxalate Binding Protein gp210 [PDF]
The effect of oxalate, a constituent of renal stone, on the expression of nuclear pore complex oxalate binding protein (gp210) in Vero monkey kidney cells was examined.

The protonated form of butyrate, as well as other short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), is membrane permeable. In acidic extracellular environments, this can lead to intracellular accumulation of SCFAs and cytosolic acidification. This phenomenon will be particularly relevant in acidic environments such as the large intestine or tumor microenvironments ...

Flashlight Search Medial Axis: A Pixel-Free Pore-Network Extraction Algorithm [PDF]
Pore-network models (PNMs) have become an important tool in the study of fluid flow in porous media over the last few decades, and the accuracy of their results highly depends on the extraction of pore networks. Traditional methods of pore-network extraction are based on pixels and require images with high quality.
