Impaired SIRT1 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling in the senescent heart during ischemic stress

Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of the NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase SIRT1.

Sir2 (silent information regulator 2) is an NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase that contributes to longevity in yeast. SIRT1, a mammalian Sir2 ortholog, deacetylates histones and various transcription factors, including p53, FOXO proteins, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma. We found that its subcellular localization varied in different tissues of the adult mouse. Some subse...

Stress inhibits the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of heat shock protein hsc70

Heat shock proteins of the hsp/hsc70 family are essential chaperones, implicated in the stress response, aging, and a growing number of human diseases. At the molecular level, hsc70s are required for the proper folding and intracellular targeting of polypeptides as well as the regulation of apoptosis. Cytoplasmic members of the hsp/hsc70 family are believed to shuttle between nuclei and cytopla...

Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of Endocytic Proteins

Many cellular processes rely on the ordered assembly of macromolecular structures. Here, we uncover an unexpected link between two such processes, endocytosis and transcription. Many endocytic proteins, including eps15, epsin1, the clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM), and alpha-adaptin, accumulate in the nucleus when nuclear export is inhibited. Endocytosis and nucleocytoplasmic ...
