The importin beta superfamily member RanBP17 exhibits a role in cell proliferation and is associated with improved survival of patients with HPV+ HNSCC

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2022
Background More than twenty years after its discovery, the role of the importin beta superfamily member Ran GTP-binding protein (RanBP) 17 is still ill defined.

Signal Recognition Particle (SRP) and SRP Receptor: A New Paradigm for Multistate Regulatory GTPases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The GTP-binding proteins or GTPases comprise a superfamily of proteins that provide molecular switches in numerous cellular processes. The “GTPase switch” paradigm, in which a GTPase acts as a bimodal switch that is turned “on” and “off” by external ...

Mitochondrial Protein Import [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The role of nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) in mitochondrial protein import was investigated with the precursors of N. crassa ADP/ATP carrier, F1-ATPase subunit β, F0-ATPase subunit 9, and fusion proteins between subunit 9 and mouse dihydrofolate ...

Importin-beta and CRM1 control a RANBP2 spatiotemporal switch essential for mitotic kinetochore function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Protein conjugation with small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a post-translational modification that modulates protein interactions and localisation.

Selective Impairment of a Subset of Ran-GTP-binding Domains of Ran-binding Protein 2 (Ranbp2) Suffices to Recapitulate the Degeneration of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) Triggered by Ranbp2 Ablation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2014
Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) degeneration underpins diseases triggered by disparate genetic lesions, noxious insults, or both. The pleiotropic Ranbp2 controls the expression of intrinsic and extrinsic pathological stressors impinging on cellular viability. However, the physiological targets and mechanisms controlled by Ranbp2 in tissue homeostasis,

Inter-cellular transport of ran GTPase.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Ran, a member of the Ras-GTPase superfamily, has a well-established role in regulating the transport of macromolecules across the nuclear envelope (NE). Ran has also been implicated in mitosis, cell cycle progression, and NE formation. Over-expression of

Identification of alternatively spliced MsRan transcripts involved in low temperature response in Musa spp.

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2017
Ran is involved in response to external stimuli. In this study, six MsRan gene cDNA sequences were isolated from wild banana (Musa spp. AB group) from Sanming City, China.

Arabidopsis kinetochore fiber-associated MAP65-4 cross-links microtubules and promotes microtubule bundle elongation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The acentrosomal plant mitotic spindle is uniquely structured in that it lacks opposing centrosomes at its poles and is equipped with a connective preprophase band that regulates the spatial framework for spindle orientation and mobility.

Inhibition of sequestration of human B-2 bradykinin receptor by phenylarsine oxide or sucrose allows determination of a receptor affinity shift and ligand dissociation in intact cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Depending on their interaction with intracellular proteins, G proteincoupled receptors (GPCR) often display different affinities for agonists at 37degreesC. Determining the affinity at that temperature is often difficult in intact cells as most GPCRs are

The methylated N-terminal tail of RCC1 is required for stabilisation of its interaction with chromatin by Ran in live cells

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2010
Background Regulator of chromosome condensation 1 (RCC1) is the guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ran GTPase. Localised generation of Ran-GTP by RCC1 on chromatin is critical for nucleocytoplasmic transport, mitotic spindle assembly and nuclear ...
