Gene Synthesis> | Coding sequences for FG domains were PCR-amplified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA or synthesized de novo by GenScript and were cloned into pGEX-2TK in frame with the 3′ end of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) gene. | Get A Quote |
A selective barrier formed by intrinsically disordered Phe-Gly (FG) nucleoporins (Nups) allows transport receptor (TR)-facilitated translocation of signal-dependent cargos through the nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) of eukaryotic cells. However, the configuration of the FG-Nup barrier and its interactions with multiple TRs in native NPCs remain obscure. Here, we mapped the interaction sites of various TRs or FG segments within the FG-Nup barrier by using high-speed super-resolution microscopy and used these sites to reconstruct the three-dimensional tomography of the native barrier in the NPC. We found that each TR possesses a unique interaction zone within the FG-Nup barrier and that two major TRs, importin β1 ... More
