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.

Prediction of nuclear proteins using SVM and HMM models
Background The nucleus, a highly organized organelle, plays important role in cellular homeostasis. The nuclear proteins are crucial for chromosomal maintenance/segregation, gene expression, RNA processing/export, and many other processes.

Modeling the transport of nuclear proteins along single skeletal muscle cells. [PDF]
Significance Skeletal muscle cells are unique among human cells because they contain hundreds of nuclei distributed over large distances within a shared cytoplasm.

Electrophilic PROTACs that degrade nuclear proteins by engaging DCAF16. [PDF]
Ligand-dependent protein degradation has emerged as a compelling strategy to pharmacologically control the protein content of cells. So far, however, only a limited number of E3 ligases have been found to support this process.

Nanobody-targeted E3-ubiquitin ligase complex degrades nuclear proteins. [PDF]
Targeted protein degradation is a powerful tool in determining the function of specific proteins or protein complexes. We fused nanobodies to SPOP, an adaptor protein of the Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, resulting in rapid ubiquitination and ...

Laminopathies: what can humans learn from fruit flies
Lamin proteins are type V intermediate filament proteins (IFs) located inside the cell nucleus. They are evolutionarily conserved and have similar domain organization and properties to cytoplasmic IFs. Lamins provide a skeletal network for chromatin, the

Improved proteomic analysis of nuclear proteins, as exemplified by the comparison of two myelo\"id cell lines nuclear proteomes [PDF]
One of the challenges of the proteomic analysis by 2D-gel is to visualize the low abundance proteins, particularly those localized in organelles. An additional problem with nuclear proteins lies in their strong interaction with nuclear acids.
