Presentation Transcript

  1. Nuclear Import & Export Nuclear structure Nuclear pore Import/ Export Signals Receptors Ran FG Platform Regulation

  2. Nuclear Structure Origin Relates to Topology Parts chromatin matrix nucleoli lamina (M-phase disassembly) pores inner membrane outer membrane lumen (peri-nuclear space)

  3. 11.4 Signal-mediated transport through nuclear pore complexes (NPC) The nuclear pore complex Figure 11-28

  4. Transport • Imported • Polymerases • Histones • Transcription factors • Ribosomal proteins • Exported • tRNAs • mRNPs • Ribosomal subunits • Transcription factors 106 ribos=>560K ribo proteins imported/min 14,000 ribo subs exported/min 3-4K pores/cell=> 150 ribo proteins/min/pore Also 100 histones/min/pore etc.

  5. Nuclear Pore 125MD, 100 proteins, octagonal symmetry, 3-4K pores/cell central plug nuclear basket cytoplasmic fibers Passive diffusion ≤5K no barrier, limit 40-60KD Channel 9nm x 15 nm long Opens to 26 nm w/ signal: gating mech. unknown Bidirectional Nucleoporins (FG repeats)

  6. 11.4 Model for passage of mRNPs through nuclear pore complexes Figure 11-31

  7. Signals Not cleaved Folded proteins transported NLS (nuclear localization signal) Defined by transfection/microinjection experiments e.g. stretch of basic residues SV40 T=PKKKRKV drives import of pyruvate kinase NES (nuclear export signal) Defined by heterokaryon expt e.g. leucine rich

  8. 11.4 Proteins with a nuclear-localization signal (NLS) are recognized by receptors and transported into the nucleus Figure 11-35

  9. 11.4 Heterokaryon assay demonstrating that human hnRNP A1 protein can cycle in and out of the cytoplasm but human hnRNP protein C cannot Figure 11-32

  10. 11.4 A model for hnRNP-mediated export of mRNAs from the nucleus Figure 11-34

  11. Receptors Identified with affinity chromatography permeabilized cell assays (Ran, import receptor, NTF2) Large family of related Nuclear Import & Export Receptors Bind signals (direct or indirect), porins & RanGTP cargo binding controlled by Ran destabilizes import receptors stabilizes export receptors

  12. RCC1: stabilizes exchange intermediate RanGAP1, RanBP1, RanBP2: >105 fold cooperative RanBP1 binds Ran->dissoc. then RanGAP RanGAP sumo/ RanBP2 complex on pore NTF2: import receptor for RanGDP

  13. Facilitated Diffusion Transport cycles of exportins and importins use the chemical potential of a primary gradient, namely that of RanGTP, to drive the directed transport of cargo molecules On its own, translocation per se would be a fully reversible process that would only allow an equilibration of cargoes between nucleus and cytoplasm. Directional transport is achieved by Ran-regulated cargo loading and unloading of the transport receptors. This also constitutes the input of energy in the form of one molecule of GTP hydrolyzed per transport cycle.
