Interactome mapping reveals the evolutionary history of the nuclear pore complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is responsible for nucleocytoplasmic transport and constitutes a hub for control of gene expression. The components of NPCs from several eukaryotic lineages have been determined, but only the yeast and vertebrate NPCs have ...

HOXA repression is mediated by nucleoporin Nup93 assisted by its interactors Nup188 and Nup205

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2016
BackgroundThe nuclear pore complex (NPC) mediates nuclear transport of RNA and proteins into and out of the nucleus. Certain nucleoporins have additional functions in chromatin organization and transcription regulation. Nup93 is a scaffold nucleoporin at

Chromatin-prebound Crm1 recruits Nup98-HoxA9 fusion to induce aberrant expression of Hox cluster genes

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The nucleoporin Nup98 is frequently rearranged to form leukemogenic Nup98-fusion proteins with various partners. However, their function remains largely elusive. Here, we show that Nup98-HoxA9, a fusion between Nup98 and the homeobox transcription factor

Targeting self-renewal pathways in myeloid malignancies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A fundamental property of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is the ability to self-renew. This is a complex process involving multiple signal transduction cascades which control the fine balance between self-renewal and differentiation through ...

Nucleoporins and Transcription: New Connections, New Questions

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2010
It seems to make perfect sense that RNA, which must be exported from the nucleus to be translated, would be produced near or in association with nuclear pores. Indeed, recent reports proposed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes located close to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) tend to be highly transcribed [1],[2] and that, upon activation, some genes ...

Analysis of Lotus japonicus nuclear pore NUP107-160 subcomplex mutants reveals pronounced structural plasticity and functional redundancy

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Mutations in the Lotus japonicus nucleoporin genes, NUP85, NUP133 and NENA (SEH1), lead to defects in plant-microbe symbiotic signaling. The homologous proteins in yeast and vertebrates are part of the conserved NUP84/NUP107-160 sub-complex, which is an ...

Toward the atomic structure of the nuclear pore complex: when top down meets bottom up [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Elucidating the structure of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a prerequisite for understanding the molecular mechanism of nucleocytoplasmic transport.

Allosteric modulation of nucleoporin assemblies by intrinsically disordered regions

open access: yesScience Advances, 2019
Kap121 interacts with an intrinsically disordered region of Nup53 to allosterically modulate Nup53 binding to partner nucleoporins. Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of proteins are implicated in key macromolecular interactions.

Evolution of a transcriptional regulator from a transmembrane nucleoporin

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2016
Franks et al. identify a widely expressed variant of the transmembrane nucleoporin Pom121 (named sPom121, for “soluble Pom121”) that arose by genomic rearrangement before the divergence of hominoids.
