Interplay of the nuclear envelope with chromatin in physiology and pathology
The nuclear envelope compartmentalizes chromatin in eukaryotic cells. The main nuclear envelope components are lamins that associate with a panoply of factors, including the LEM domain proteins.

Regulation of anti-inflammatory gene expression in vascular endothelial cells by EPAC1 [PDF]
Suppressor of cytokine signalling 3 (SOCS3) is a potent inhibitor of pro-inflammatory pathways involved in atherogenesis and the development of neo-intimal hyperplasia (NIH), which contributes to the in-stent re-stenosis responsible for the failure of ...

Nuclear Pore-Targeting Complex and Its Role on Nuclear Protein Transport.
The process of selective nuclear protein transport is divided into at least two steps: 1) ATP-independent, nuclear localization signal (NLS)-dependent binding to the cytoplasmic face of nuclear pores and 2) ATP-dependent translocation through the nuclear pores.

Quantitative Analysis of Membrane Protein Transport Across the Nuclear Pore Complex [PDF]
Nuclear transport of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae membrane proteins Src1/Heh1 and Heh2 across the NPC is facilitated by a long intrinsically disordered linker between the nuclear localization signal (NLS) and the transmembrane domain. The import of reporter proteins derived from Heh2 is dependent on the FG‐Nups in the central channel, and the linker ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Viral Appropriation: Laying Claim to Host Nuclear Transport Machinery
Protein nuclear transport is an integral process to many cellular pathways and often plays a critical role during viral infection. To overcome the barrier presented by the nuclear membrane and gain access to the nucleus, virally encoded proteins have ...

Importin-beta and CRM1 control a RANBP2 spatiotemporal switch essential for mitotic kinetochore function [PDF]
Protein conjugation with small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a post-translational modification that modulates protein interactions and localisation.

Nuclear pore protein NUP88 activates anaphase-promoting complex to promote aneuploidy [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex protein NUP88 is frequently elevated in aggressive human cancers and correlates with reduced patient survival; however, it is unclear whether and how NUP88 overexpression drives tumorigenesis. Here, we show that mice overexpressing NUP88 are cancer prone and form intestinal tumors.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Nuclear pore complex protein RANBP2 and related SUMOylation in solid malignancies
The growing interest in post-translational protein modification, particularly in SUMOylation, is driven by its crucial role in cell cycle regulation. SUMOylation affects various cell cycle regulators, including oncogenes, suggesting its relevance in cancer.
