Transportin-SR2 mediates nuclear import of phosphorylated SR proteins.
Serine/arginine-rich proteins (SR proteins) are a family of nuclear factors that play important roles in both constitutive and regulated precursor mRNA splicing. The domain rich in arginine/serine (RS) repeats (RS domain) serves as both a nuclear and subnuclear localization signal. We previously identified an importin beta family protein, transportin-SR2 (TRN-SR2), that specifically interacts w...
متن کاملTransportin-SR2 Imports HIV into the Nucleus
BACKGROUND The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and other lentiviruses have the capacity to infect nondividing cells like macrophages. This requires import of the preintegration complex (PIC) through the nuclear pore. Although many cellular and viral determinants have been proposed, the mechanism leading to nuclear import is not yet understood. RESULTS Using yeast two-hybrid and pu...
متن کاملHIV-1 Infection: Going Nuclear with TNPO3/Transportin-SR2 and Integrase
Factors necessary for HIV-1 nuclear import have been sought for many years. Recent reports suggest that TNPO3/Transportin-SR2 binds to HIV-1 integrase and is required for HIV-1 infection of interphase cells.
متن کاملRegulation of Cdc2/cyclin B activation by Ran, a Ras-related GTPase.
During the cell cycle, a checkpoint prevents the initiation of mitosis until S-phase is completed. The molecular mechanism may involve the RCC1 protein, which catalyses guanine nucleotide exchange on the Ras-related nuclear protein, Ran (or TC4). Genetic studies have suggested that RCC1 may be involved in sensing the replication state of DNA and controlling the activation of Cdc2/cyclin B prote...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibodies to NTF2 inhibit nuclear protein import by preventing nuclear translocation of the GTPase Ran.
Nuclear transport factor 2 (NTF2) is a soluble transport protein originally identified by its ability to stimulate nuclear localization signal (NLS)-dependent protein import in digitonin-permeabilized cells. NTF2 has been shown to bind nuclear pore complex proteins and the GDP form of Ran in vitro. Recently, it has been reported that NTF2 can stimulate the accumulation of Ran in digitonin-perme...
