CRM1 (XPO1) has been well-characterized as a shuttling receptor that mediates the export of protein and RNA cargos to the cytoplasm, and previous analyses have pinpointed several key residues (A541, F572, K568, S1055, and Q742) that modulate CRM1 export activity. CRM1 also has a less studied nuclear function in RNA biogenesis, which is reflected by its localization to the Cajal body and the nucleolus. Here, we have investigated how the mutation of these key residues affects the intranuclear localization of CRM1 and its ability to mediate export of endogenous cargos.

The developmental competence and epigenetic progression of oocytes gradually become dysregulated with increasing maternal age. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related epigenetic regulation in oocytes remain poorly understood. Zygote arrest proteins 1 and 2 (ZAR1/2) are two maternal factors with partially redundant roles in maintaining oocyte quality, mainly known by regulating mRNA stability.

Background: There is a growing interest in exploring the biological characteristics of nanoparticles and exploring their potential applications. However, there is still a lack of research into the potential genotoxicity of fullerene derivatives and their impact on gene expression in human cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of a water-soluble fullerene derivative, C60[C6H4SCH2COOK]5H (F1), on human embryonic lung fibroblasts (HELF).

Intranuclear protein quality control (PQC) is critical for protein homeostasis (or proteostasis) in non-dividing cells including brain nerve cells, but its molecular mechanism remains unresolved. In nutrient-starved conditions, elimination of nucleolar proteins is critical for cell viability in budding yeast, providing a model system to study the mechanisms involved in intranuclear PQC. The nuclear-specific endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) CHMP7/Chm7 is linked to neurodegenerative diseases, but its known role is limited.

Unlabelled: parasites, the causative agents of malaria, undergo closed mitosis without breakdown of the nuclear envelope. Unlike closed mitosis in yeast, parasites undergo multiple rounds of asynchronous nuclear divisions in a shared cytoplasm. This results in a multinucleated organism prior to the formation of daughter cells within an infected red blood cell.
