Silencing nuclear pore protein Tpr elicits a senescent-like phenotype in cancer cells. [PDF]
Tpr is a large coiled-coil protein located in the nuclear basket of the nuclear pore complex for which many different functions were proposed from yeast to human.Here we show that depletion of Tpr by RNA interference triggers G0-G1 arrest and ultimately ...

Nuclear pore complex proteins are involved in centromere distribution [PDF]
Summary: The subnuclear distribution of centromeres is cooperatively regulated by condensin II and the linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complex.

A short perinuclear amphipathic α-helix in Apq12 promotes nuclear pore complex biogenesis
The integral membrane protein Apq12 is an important nuclear envelope (NE)/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) modulator that cooperates with the nuclear pore complex (NPC) biogenesis factors Brl1 and Brr6. How Apq12 executes these functions is unknown.

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.

Characterization of nuclear pore complex targeting domains in Pom152 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Pom152 is a transmembrane protein within the nuclear pore complex (NPC) of fungi that is important for NPC assembly and structure. Pom152 is comprised of a short amino-terminal region that remains on the cytosolic side of the nuclear envelope (NE) and ...

Types of nuclear localization signals and mechanisms of protein import into the nucleus
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are generally short peptides that act as a signal fragment that mediates the transport of proteins from the cytoplasm into the nucleus.

NMR diffusion pore imaging: Experimental phase detection by double diffusion encoding [PDF]
Diffusion pore imaging is an extension of diffusion-weighted nuclear magnetic resonance imaging enabling the direct measurement of the shape of arbitrarily formed, closed pores by probing diffusion restrictions using the motion of spin-bearing particles.

Multiscale reconstruction of porous media based on multiple dictionaries learning [PDF]
Digital modeling of the microstructure is important for studying the physical and transport properties of porous media. Multiscale modeling for porous media can accurately characterize macro-pores and micro-pores in a large-FoV (field of view) high-resolution three-dimensional pore structure model.

Formation of the postmitotic nuclear envelope from extended ER cisternae precedes nuclear pore assembly [PDF]
During mitosis, the nuclear envelope merges with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and nuclear pore complexes are disassembled. In a current model for reassembly after mitosis, the nuclear envelope forms by a reshaping of ER tubules.
