Bridge-Induced Translocation between NUP145 and TOP2 Yeast Genes Models the Genetic Fusion between the Human Orthologs Associated With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2017
In mammalian organisms liquid tumors such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are related to spontaneous chromosomal translocations ensuing in gene fusions.

The Nuclear Pore Complex: Birth, Life, and Death of a Cellular Behemoth

open access: yesCells, 2022
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are the only transport channels that cross the nuclear envelope. Constructed from ~500–1000 nucleoporin proteins each, they are among the largest macromolecular assemblies in eukaryotic cells.

Nucleoporin genes in human diseases [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2016
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are large channels spanning the nuclear envelope that mediate nucleocytoplasmic transport. They are composed of multiple copies of ~30 proteins termed nucleoporins (NUPs). Alterations in NUP genes are linked to several human neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases.

Shaping the p53 Response with Nucleoporins [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2012
In this issue, Singer et al. (2012) reveal that the nucleoporin Nup98 supports adaptation to genotoxic stress by protecting specific p53-induced mRNAs from exosome-dependent degradation, suggesting that wild-type Nup98 may possess tumor suppressor function.

The Human NUP58 Nucleoporin Can Form Amyloids In Vitro and In Vivo

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Amyloids are fibrillar protein aggregates with a cross-β structure and unusual features, including high resistance to detergent or protease treatment.

The new nucleoporin [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus, 2012
Transcriptional regulation is a complex process that requires the integrated action of many multi-protein complexes. The way in which a living cell coordinates the action of these complexes in time and space is still poorly understood. Recent work has shown that nuclear pores, well known for their role in 3' processing and export of transcripts, also ...

Viruses Challenge Selectivity Barrier of Nuclear Pores

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Exchange between the nucleus and the cytoplasm occurs through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) embedded in the double membrane of the nuclear envelope. NPC permeability barrier restricts the entry of inert molecules larger than 5 nm in diameter but allows ...

Nuclear distributions of NUP62 and NUP214 suggest architectural diversity and spatial patterning among nuclear pore complexes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The shape of nuclei in many adherent cultured cells approximates an oblate ellipsoid, with contralateral flattened surfaces facing the culture plate or the medium.

Newly found Tetrahymena nucleoporins, Nup214, Nup153 and Pom121/Pom82, differentiate nuclear pore complexes of functionally distinct nuclei

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2018
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is the sole gateway for molecular transport between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in eukaryotes. The NPC is composed of approximately 30 different kinds of protein components called nucleoporins. The functional structure of

Nicotiana benthamiana RanBP1-1 Is Involved in the Induction of Disease Resistance via Regulation of Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Transport of Small GTPase Ran

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Plant cells enhance the tolerances to abiotic and biotic stresses via recognition of the stress, activation and nuclear import of signaling factors, up-regulation of defense genes, nuclear export of mRNA and translation of defense proteins.
