The Nuclear Pore Complex Is a Key Target of Viral Proteases to Promote Viral Replication

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Various viruses alter nuclear pore complex (NPC) integrity to access the nuclear content favoring their replication. Alteration of the nuclear pore complex has been observed not only in viruses that replicate in the nucleus but also in viruses with a ...

Types of nuclear localization signals and mechanisms of protein import into the nucleus

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2021
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.

Herpesvirus Nuclear Egress across the Outer Nuclear Membrane

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Herpesvirus capsids are assembled in the nucleus and undergo a two-step process to cross the nuclear envelope. Capsids bud into the inner nuclear membrane (INM) aided by the nuclear egress complex (NEC) proteins UL31/34.

Detecting Selective Protein Binding Inside Plasmonic Nanopores: Toward a Mimic of the Nuclear Pore Complex

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2018
Biosensors based on plasmonic nanostructures offer label-free and real-time monitoring of biomolecular interactions. However, so do many other surface sensitive techniques with equal or better resolution in terms of surface coverage.

splitSMLM, a spectral demixing method for high-precision multi-color localization microscopy applied to nuclear pore complexes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
The development of an image splitter based multi-colour single-molecule localization microscopy method (splitSMLM) in combination with a spectral demixing algorithm improves localization accuracy as exemplified by three-colour imaging of nuclear pore ...

NucEnvDB: A Database of Nuclear Envelope Proteins and Their Interactions

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
The nuclear envelope (NE) is a double-membrane system surrounding the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. A large number of proteins are localized in the NE, performing a wide variety of functions, from the bidirectional exchange of molecules between the ...

Nuclear Envelope Regulation of Oncogenic Processes: Roles in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesEpigenomes, 2018
Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive and intractable malignancy with high mortality. This is due in part to a high resistance to chemotherapeutics and radiation treatment conferred by diverse regulatory mechanisms.

Components of coated vesicles and nuclear pore complexes share a common molecular architecture.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
Numerous features distinguish prokaryotes from eukaryotes, chief among which are the distinctive internal membrane systems of eukaryotic cells. These membrane systems form elaborate compartments and vesicular trafficking pathways, and sequester the ...

The NAE Pathway: Autobahn to the Nucleus for Cell Surface Receptors

open access: yesCells, 2019
Various growth factors and full-length cell surface receptors such as EGFR are translocated from the cell surface to the nucleoplasm, baffling cell biologists to the mechanisms and functions of this process. Elevated levels of nuclear EGFR correlate with

The HSV1 Tail-Anchored Membrane Protein pUL34 Contains a Basic Motif That Supports Active Transport to the Inner Nuclear Membrane Prior to Formation of the Nuclear Egress Complex

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Herpes simplex virus type 1 nucleocapsids are released from the host nucleus by a budding process through the nuclear envelope called nuclear egress. Two viral proteins, the integral membrane proteins pUL34 and pUL31, form the nuclear egress complex at ...
