Nuclear protein import [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 1997
The defining feature of eukaryotic organisms is the cell nucleus. All nuclear proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm and need to be imported through the nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) into the nucleus. Import can be directed by various signals, of which the classical nuclear localization signal (NLS) and the M9 import signal are the best ...

Protein phosphatases at the nuclear envelope [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2018
The nuclear envelope (NE) is a unique topological structure formed by lipid membranes (Inner and Outer Membrane: IM and OM) interrupted by open channels (Nuclear Pore complexes). Besides its well-established structural role in providing a physical separation between the genome and the cytoplasm and regulating the exchanges between the two cellular ...

Emerin Is Required for Proper Nucleus Reassembly after Mitosis: Implications for New Pathogenetic Mechanisms for Laminopathies Detected in EDMD1 Patients

open access: yesCells, 2019
Emerin is an essential LEM (LAP2, Emerin, MAN1) domain protein in metazoans and an integral membrane protein associated with inner and outer nuclear membranes.

Targeting nuclear transporters in cancer: Diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Karyopherin superfamily is a major class of soluble transport receptors consisting of both import and export proteins. The trafficking of proteins involved in transcription, cell signalling and cell cycle regulation among other functions across the ...

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment

open access: yesCells, 2019
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is one of the most severe disorders among laminopathies—a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases with a molecular background based on mutations in the LMNA gene and genes coding for interacting proteins.

The function of the nuclear envelope in nuclear protein accumulation. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 1988
The mechanism by which proteins accumulate in the cell nucleus is not yet known. Two alternative mechanisms are discussed here: (a) selective unidirectional entry of karyophilic proteins through the nuclear pores, and (b) free diffusion of all proteins through the nuclear pores and specific binding of nuclear proteins to nondiffusible components of the

Molecular aspects of Schistosoma mansoni female maturation

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1995
Incubation of total protein extracts of Schistosoma mansoni with 3H 17-beta-estradiol and 20-hydroxyecdysone, revealed steroid binding proteins in both, male and female worms.

Proteomic identification of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L as a novel component of SLM/Sam68 nuclear bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Active pre-mRNA splicing occurs co-transcriptionally, and takes place throughout the nucleoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Splicing decisions are controlled by networks of nuclear RNA-binding proteins and their target sequences, sometimes in ...

Energy- and temperature-dependent transport of integral proteins to the inner nuclear membrane via the nuclear pore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Resident integral proteins of the inner nuclear membrane (INM) are synthesized as membrane-integrated proteins on the peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and are transported to the INM throughout interphase using an unknown trafficking mechanism.

Heat shock protein 60 in vascular biology [PDF]

open access: yesScripta Medica
The response of heat shock proteins (HSPs) to stress-induced stimuli is now well documented and understood. Specific HSPs like HSP70 play an important role in vascular diseases like atherosclerosis and hypertension. However, the involvement of other HSPs
