Trafficking And/Or Division: Distinct Roles of Nucleoporins Based on Their Location Within the Nuclear Pore Complex

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2022
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) facilitates the trafficking of proteins and RNA between the nucleus and cytoplasm. The role of nucleoporins (Nups) in transport in the context of the NPC is well established, yet their function in tRNA export has not been ...

The nuclear pore complex as a spatial organizing hub for high-risk DNA lesions [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is best known for nucleocytoplasmic transport, but growing evidence implicates nucleoporins and NPC-associated environments in genome maintenance.

NPHP proteins are binding partners of nucleoporins at the base of the primary cilium.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the surface of eukaryotic cells to generate motility and to sense and respond to environmental cues.

Lipid Droplets Are a Physiological Nucleoporin Reservoir [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2021
Lipid Droplets (LD) are dynamic organelles that originate in the Endoplasmic Reticulum and mostly bud off toward the cytoplasm, where they store neutral lipids for energy and protection purposes.

Pathologies at the gateway: exploring the link between nucleoporins and inherited diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Nuclear pore complexes serve as essential gatekeepers of the nuclear envelope, playing crucial roles in regulating transport across the nuclear envelope and maintaining compartmentalization between the nucleus and cytoplasm. While they are fundamental to

A nanobody suite for yeast scaffold nucleoporins provides details of the nuclear pore complex structure

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Characterizing the assembly of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) remains challenging. Here, the authors develop a set of nanobodies that recognize seven constituent nucleoporins, study their binding characteristics, and apply them to probe accessible and ...

Regulation of nucleoporins in mitosis

open access: yes, 2007
Nucleoporins mediate nucleocytoplasmic trafficking in interphase. In mitosis, upon nuclear envelope breakdown, the role and regulation of Nups remain to be elucidated.

Scaffold nucleoporins Nup188 and Nup192 share structural and functional properties with nuclear transport receptors [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Nucleocytoplasmic transport is mediated by nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) embedded in the nuclear envelope. About 30 different proteins (nucleoporins, nups) arrange around a central eightfold rotational axis to build the modular NPC. Nup188 and Nup192 are

Nuclear Pore Mechanotransduction in Oncology: A Structural Axis of Vulnerability for Targeted Intervention. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Mater
Cancer‐associated NPC remodeling creates a high‐flux, low‐stringency nuclear state that supports malignant adaptation but increases mechanical fragility. Targeting the FG‐barrier or NPC scaffold may drive mechanostat failure, envelope rupture, DNA damage, and loss of nuclear integrity.

How SARS-CoV-2 and Other Viruses Build an Invasion Route to Hijack the Host Nucleocytoplasmic Trafficking System

open access: yesCells, 2021
The host nucleocytoplasmic trafficking system is often hijacked by viruses to accomplish their replication and to suppress the host immune response.
