Two structurally distinct domains of the nucleoporin Nup170 cooperate to tether a subset of nucleoporins to nuclear pores [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2009
How individual nucleoporins (Nups) perform their role in nuclear pore structure and function is largely unknown. In this study, we examined the structure of purified Nup170 to obtain clues about its function. We show that Nup170 adopts a crescent moon shape with two structurally distinct and separable domains, a β-propeller N terminus and an α-solenoid

A high‐fat, high‐sucrose diet exacerbates muscle and metabolic pathology and undermines glucocorticoid efficacy in dystrophin‐deficient mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 15, Page 6440-6464, 1 August 2026.
Abstract figure legend A high‐fat, high‐sucrose diet (HFHSD) exacerbated muscle and metabolic dysregulation in mdx mice while also altering the physiological response to prednisolone (Pred) In diaphragms of control diet (CD)‐fed mdx mice, prednisolone treatment improved muscle function and reduced fibrosis, inflammatory signalling, and mitochondrial ...

Importin 7 and Nup358 promote nuclear import of the protein component of human telomerase.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In actively dividing eukaryotic cells, chromosome ends (telomeres) are subject to progressive shortening, unless they are maintained by the action of telomerase, a dedicated enzyme that adds DNA sequence repeats to chromosomal 3'end.

Eyes Toward the Clinic: Selective Inhibition and Degradation Approaches to Bromodomain‐Containing Proteins

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
The function of bromodomain‐containing proteins in regulating gene transcription is reviewed here, including the development of chemical probes and targeted protein degradation modalities (e.g., PROTACs). This extends to clinical efforts targeting the BET bromodomain‐containing proteins. Challenges of selectivity, future prospects, and the differential

The Multiple Faces of Disordered Nucleoporins

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2016
An evolutionary advantage of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is their ability to bind a variety of folded proteins-a paradigm that is central to the nucleocytoplasmic transport mechanism, in which nuclear transport receptors mediate the translocation of various cargo through the nuclear pore complex by binding disordered phenylalanine-glycine ...

NLS‐mediated NPC functions of the nucleoporin Pom121 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2010
MINT‐7951306, MINT‐7951362: pom121 (uniprotkb:Q5EWX9) physically interacts (MI:0914) with nup155 (uniprotkb:Q7ZWL0), nup160 (uniprotkb:P83722), nup93 (uniprotkb:Q7ZX96), Importin beta (uniprotkb:P52297) and nup62 (uniprotkb:Q91349) by pull down (MI:0096)

A SUMO-dependent feedback loop senses and controls the biogenesis of nuclear pore subunits

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The nuclear pore complex is crucial for mediating nucleocytoplasmic exchanges. Here the authors use budding yeast to reveal a mechanism responsible of maintaining nucleoporin homeostasis by sensing changes in the complex integrity and further altering ...

An Arabidopsis Nucleoporin NUP85 modulates plant responses to ABA and salt stress. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
Several nucleoporins in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) have been reported to be involved in abiotic stress responses in plants. However, the molecular mechanism of how NPC regulates abiotic stress responses, especially the expression of stress responsive

Chromosomal Instability Drives Glioblastoma Heterogeneity and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma, the most aggressive and lethal form of brain cancer, is defined by profound genomic instability, with Chromosomal Instability (CIN) playing a central role in driving tumor progression, therapy resistance, and poor prognosis. CIN is characterized by numerical and structural alterations, is driven by mechanisms such as mitotic ...

Nucleoporin Gene Fusions and Hematopoietic Malignancies [PDF]

open access: yesNew Journal of Science, 2014
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are the sole gateways between the nucleus and the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells and they mediate all macromolecular trafficking between these cellular compartments. Nucleocytoplasmic transport is highly selective and precisely regulated and as such an important aspect of normal cellular function. Defects in this process or
