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

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.

In Pursuit of Distinctiveness: Transmembrane Nucleoporins and Their Disease Associations

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
The bi-directional nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of macromolecules like molecular signals, transcription factors, regulatory proteins, and RNAs occurs exclusively through Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC) residing in the nuclear membrane. This magnanimous complex

Channel nuclear pore complex subunits are required for transposon silencing in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is the principal gateway between nucleus and cytoplasm that enables exchange of macromolecular cargo. Composed of multiple copies of ~30 different nucleoporins (Nups), the NPC acts as a selective portal, interacting with ...

Role of Nucleoporins and Transport Receptors in Cell Differentiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Bidirectional molecular movements between the nucleus and cytoplasm take place through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) embedded in the nuclear membrane.

A Nucleoporin at the Meiotic Kinetochore [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2016
In this issue of Developmental Cell, Hattersley et al. (2016) use the unique biology of meiosis I, in which the cell can exit the division without reforming the nuclear envelope, to uncover an intriguing role of the nucleoporin MEL-28 in mediating chromosome segregation via its interaction with PP1 at the kinetochore.

Multifunctionality of F-rich nucleoporins [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2020
Nucleoporins (Nups) represent a range of proteins most known for composing the macromolecular assembly of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Among them, the family of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) phenylalanine-glycine (FG) rich Nups, form the permeability barrier and coordinate the high-speed nucleocytoplasmic transport in a selective way ...

Nucleoporin Nup358 Downregulation Tunes the Neuronal Excitability in Mouse Cortical Neurons

open access: yesLife, 2023
Nucleoporins (NUPs) are proteins that comprise the nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). The NPC spans the nuclear envelope of a cell and provides a channel through which RNA and proteins move between the nucleus and the cytoplasm and vice versa.

Autoproteolysis in nucleoporin biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
We have molecularly characterized a proteolytic cleavage in conserved nuclear pore complex proteins. This cleavage, previously demonstrated to be essential for the biogenesis of two nuclear pore complex proteins in mammals (Nup98 and Nup96) and yeast (Nup145-N and Nup145-C), occurs between Phe and Ser residues within a highly conserved ...

The Nuclear Life of Nucleoporins [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2007
Nucleoporins are the constituents of the nuclear pore complex, but they are also known to shuttle to the nuclear interior, the function of which is unclear. In a recent issue of Nature Cell Biology, Wang et al.'s mechanistic studies of leukemogenic fusion proteins that contain nucleoporins suggest that they have a direct role in transcription.
