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

A novel function for the Caenorhabditis elegans torsin OOC-5 in nucleoporin localization and nuclear import. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Torsin proteins are AAA+ ATPases that localize to the endoplasmic reticular/nuclear envelope (ER/NE) lumen. A mutation that markedly impairs torsinA function causes the CNS disorder DYT1 dystonia. Abnormalities of NE membranes have been linked to torsinA

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.

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.

Regulation of autophagy by nucleoporin Tpr [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2012
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) consists of a conserved set of ~30 different proteins, termed nucleoporins, and serves as a gateway for the exchange of materials between the cytoplasm and nucleus. Tpr (translocated promoter region) is a component of NPC that presumably localizes at intranuclear filaments. Here, we show that Tpr knockdown caused a severe

Structural and Functional Characterization of CRM1-Nup214 Interactions Reveals Multiple FG-Binding Sites Involved in Nuclear Export

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
CRM1 is the major nuclear export receptor. During translocation through the nuclear pore, transport complexes transiently interact with phenylalanine-glycine (FG) repeats of multiple nucleoporins. On the cytoplasmic side of the nuclear pore, CRM1 tightly

Role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in Sugen 5416-induced experimental pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rationale: Rats dosed with the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor Sugen 5416 (Su), placed in hypoxia then restored to normoxia has become a widely used model of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Linking Nucleoporins, Mitosis, and Colon Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCell Chemical Biology, 2016
Suppression of a nuclear pore protein Nup358/RanBP2 is linked to mitotic cell death, but the clinical relevance of this link is unknown. In a recent issue of Cell, Vecchione et al. (2016) show that in approximately 10% of BRAF-like colorectal cancer (CC) patients, Nup358/RanBP2 is critical for survival.

Nup98 FG domains from diverse species spontaneously phase-separate into particles with nuclear pore-like permselectivity

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) conduct massive transport mediated by shuttling nuclear transport receptors (NTRs), while keeping nuclear and cytoplasmic contents separated.

The human nucleoporin Tpr protects cells from RNA-mediated replication stress

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Tpr nucleoporin is known to be essential for nuclear transport and mitosis processes. Here the authors explore the link between Tpr and genome instability providing insights into the role of Tpr in safeguarding cells from RNA-mediated replication stress.
