Identification of a nuclear export receptor for tRNA
BACKGROUND Transport of macromolecules between the nucleus and cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells is mediated by nuclear import and export receptors. The receptors identified to date are members of a family of Ran GTPase-binding proteins whose founding member is importin-beta. Interaction between these receptors and their cargo is regulated by the GTP-bound form of Ran. Export complexes form and imp...
متن کاملActive maintenance of nuclear actin by importin 9 supports transcription.
Besides its essential and well established role as a component of the cytoskeleton, actin is also present in the cell nucleus, where it has been linked to many processes that control gene expression. For example, nuclear actin regulates the activity of specific transcription factors, associates with all three RNA polymerases, and is a component of many chromatin remodelling complexes. Despite t...
متن کاملExportin 7 defines a novel general nuclear export pathway.
Most transport pathways between cell nucleus and cytoplasm are mediated by nuclear transport receptors of the importin beta family. These receptors are in continuous circulation between the two compartments and transfer cargo molecules from one side of the nuclear envelope to the other. RanBP16 is a family member from higher eukaryotes of so far unknown function. We now show that it exports p50...
متن کاملIn vivo biochemical analyses reveal distinct roles of β-importins and eEF1A in tRNA subcellular traffic.
Bidirectional tRNA movement between the nucleus and the cytoplasm serves multiple biological functions. To gain a biochemical understanding of the mechanisms for tRNA subcellular dynamics, we developed in vivo β-importin complex coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) assays using budding yeast. Our studies provide the first in vivo biochemical evidence that two β-importin family members, Los1 (exportin-...
متن کاملMicroRNA precursors in motion: exportin-5 mediates their nuclear export.
The discovery of microRNSs (miRNAs) has changed the paradigm of gene regulation, leaving us with numerous exciting questions regarding what these molecules do and how they originate. A model for miRNA biogenesis has emerged recently, yet several key factors--including the identity of the miRNA nuclear export receptor--remained unknown. However, recent studies have shown that exportin-5 (Exp5), ...
