Simple biophysics underpins collective conformations of the intrinsically disordered proteins of the Nuclear Pore Complex [PDF]

, 2016
Nuclear Pore Complexes (NPCs) are key cellular transporter that control nucleocytoplasmic transport in eukaryotic cells, but its transport mechanism is still not understood.

Multiscale dynamics in nucleocytoplasmic transport [PDF]

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2012
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) has long been viewed as a point-like entry and exit channel between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. New data support a different view whereby the complex displays distinct spatial dynamics of variable duration ranging from milliseconds to events spanning the entire cell cycle. Discrete interaction sites outside the central

GATA4‐Driven Transcription of HtrA1 Promotes Cellular Senescence in Ménière's Disease and Age‐Related Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the HDAC6/GATA4/HtrA1 axis as a critical driver of cellular senescence in the inner ear. GATA4 nuclear translocation, facilitated by HDAC6 downregulation, transcriptionally activates HtrA1, promoting hair cell senescence, SASP, and audio‐vestibular dysfunction in models of Ménière's disease and age‐related audio‐vestibular ...

C9orf72 arginine-rich dipeptide repeat proteins disrupt karyopherin-mediated nuclear import

eLife, 2020
Disruption of nucleocytoplasmic transport is increasingly implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including ALS caused by a C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion. However, the mechanism(s) remain unclear.

A Photothermal Transducer Regulates Transmembrane Calcium Flow for Synergistic Osteoarthritis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Upon NIR irradiation at 808 nm, the activity of TRPV4 was inhibited by M2M@BPSC, which led to reduced calcium influx, mitochondrial protection, and, importantly, the transcriptional activation of the STAT6‐EGR2 pathway. The improved macrophage function indirectly readjusts the equilibrium between C‐ECM and F‐ECM to reconstruct a suitable ...

Desmin’s conformational modulation by hydrophobicity

Türk Biyokimya Dergisi
Nucleocytoplasmic transport is one of the key features in regulation of cellular physiology. Developing a better understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of proteins can broaden our perspective and understanding

Mutational analysis of the carbohydrate binding activity of the tobacco lectin [PDF]

, 2010
At present the three-dimensional structure of the tobacco lectin, further referred to as Nictaba, and its carbohydrate-binding site are unresolved. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional model for the Nictaba domain based on the homology between ...

Organization and regulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport [PDF]

Molecular Biology, 2010
Separation of DNA replication and transcription, which occur in the nucleus, from protein synthesis, which occurs in the cytoplasm, allows a more precise regulation of these processes. Selective exchange of macromolecules between the two compartments is mediated by proteins of the nuclear pore complex (NPC).

Directed Evolution Improves the Catalytic Efficiency of APEX2‐Mediated Proximity‐Dependent RNA Labeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineered ascorbate peroxidase APEX2 has been widely used for spatially restricted profiling of subcellular biomolecules, but its catalytic efficiency toward newly developed probes such as biotin‐aniline (Btn‐An) remains suboptimal. To overcome this limitation, we performed yeast surface display‐based directed evolution to enhance APEX2 ...

Comparative interactomics analysis of different ALS-associated proteins identifies converging molecular pathways [PDF]

, 2016
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurological disease with no effective treatment available. An increasing number of genetic causes of ALS are being identified, but how these genetic defects lead to motor neuron degeneration and ...
