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.

Protein Transport by the Nuclear Pore Complex: Simple Biophysics of a Complex Biomachine [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2017
In eukaryotic cells, transport of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm is facilitated by highly selective and efficient biomachines known as nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). The structural details of NPCs vary across species, with many of their constituent proteins exhibiting relatively low sequence conservation; yet the NPC as a whole retains

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 ...

Co-translational assembly and localized translation of nucleoporins in nuclear pore complex biogenesis.

open access: yesMolecules and Cells, 2021
mRNA translation is coupled to multiprotein complex assembly in the cytoplasm or to protein delivery into intracellular compartments. Here, by combining systematic RNA immunoprecipitation and single-molecule RNA imaging in yeast, we have provided a ...

Characterization of a nuclear pore protein sheds light on the roles and composition of the Toxoplasma gondii nuclear pore complex [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2017
The nuclear pore is a key structure in eukaryotes regulating nuclear-cytoplasmic transport as well as a wide range of cellular processes. Here, we report the characterization of the first Toxoplasma gondii nuclear pore protein, named TgNup302, which appears to be the orthologue of the mammalian Nup98-96 protein.

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 Nuclear Pore Complex as a Transcription Regulator.

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2021
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a highly conserved channel in the nuclear envelope that mediates mRNA export to the cytosol and bidirectional protein transport.

The cytoplasmic filaments of the nuclear pore complex are dispensable for selective nuclear protein import [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2002
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) mediates bidirectional macromolecular traffic between the nucleus and cytoplasm in eukaryotic cells. Eight filaments project from the NPC into the cytoplasm and are proposed to function in nuclear import. We investigated the localization and function of two nucleoporins on the cytoplasmic face of the NPC, CAN/Nup214 and ...
