Nuclear transport mechanisms

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2001
The term nuclear transport, refers to the movement of a large variety of macromolecules both into and out of the nucleus. Transport must be extremely selective, yet also very efficient. A single type of channel, the nuclear pore complex, mediates all movement across the nuclear envelope.

Nuclear transport in vitro

Journal of Cell Science, 1989
ABSTRACT In this paper, progress towards the goal of understanding communication between the nucleus and cytoplasm using an in vitro system is reviewed. To probe the mechanism of nuclear targeting, we developed an in vitro transport system and have begun to dissect the highly selective process of nuclear transport.

Regulated Nuclear Transport

2002
The regulated traffic of cargoes between nucleus and cytoplasm is now thought rather to be the rule than the exception in nuclear transport. The biological importance of regulated nuclear transport is intuitively suggestive. A fast transcriptional response may be produced by rapid nuclear import of a transcription factor.

Nuclear protein transport

2002
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the process of nuclear protein transport. Work on the mechanism of nuclear transport has led to a fairly detailed understanding of how proteins are targeted for import or export. This work has changed the way in which researchers need to think about potential transport mechanisms for their own protein of ...

The role of ligand density and size in mediating quantum dot nuclear transport.

Small, 2014
Studying the effects of the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials on cellular uptake, toxicity, and exocytosis can provide the foundation for designing safer and more effective nanoparticles for clinical applications.

Nuclear Protein Transport Pathways

Nephron Experimental Nephrology, 1999
Nuclear proteins like transcription factors and ribosomal proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm and have to be transported into the nucleus to fulfill their functions. The transport of proteins >20–60 kD through the nuclear pore complex (NPC) into the nucleus is an active, energy-requiring process.

Nuclear Transport: Target for Therapy

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2007
Drugs directed at plasma membrane receptors target environment-cell interactions and are the mainstay of clinical pharmacology. Decoding mechanisms that govern intracellular signaling has recently opened new therapeutic avenues for interventions at cytosol-organellar interfaces.

Unveiling the role of nuclear transport in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2013
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a phenomenon in which cancer cells loose their polarity, undergo morphological changes from epithelial to mesenchymal thereby achieving plasticity that confers an invasive and metastatic behavior.

Mechanisms of nuclear transport and interventions

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2003
One of the more overlooked aspects of drug action and delivery is the exploitation of nucleocytoplasmic shuttling. Eukaryotic cells regulate many biological processes by the compartmentation of specific proteins into designated areas. Drugs that have a direct effect on a single protein must be able to localize to the same site as the protein and ...

New Perspectives on Nuclear Transport

Annual Review of Genetics, 2001
▪ Abstract  A central aspect of cellular function is the proper regulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport. In recent years, significant progress has been made in identifying and characterizing the essential components of the transport machinery. Despite these advances, some facets of this process are still unclear.
