The Part and the Whole: functions of nucleoporins in nucleocytoplasmic transport

Trends in Cell Biology
Sarah Wälde, Ralph H Kehlenbach

Abstract

The nuclear pore complex (NPC) functions as a selective gate that allows passage of certain molecules into and out of the nucleus and restricts that of others. Nucleoporins, the protein components of the NPC, can have a predominantly structural function but also take active roles in nuclear transport. First, multiple nucleoporins with phenylalanine-glycine (FG) repeats appear to act as an entity, forming a barrier that is permeable for only a subset of macromolecules. Second, individual nucleoporins can specifically affect individual transport pathways. To contrast and compare these different functions of nucleoporins, we review the models that try to explain selective transport on the basis of FG-nucleoporins and discuss the role of individual nucleoporins in nuclear import and export.

Cajal Bodies & Gems

Cajal bodies or coiled bodies are dense foci of coilin protein. Gemini of Cajal bodies, or gems, are microscopically similar to Cajal bodies. It is believed that Cajal bodies play important roles in RNA processing while gems assist the Cajal bodies. Find the latest research on Cajal bodies and gems here.
