NUP58 Gene

Name nucleoporin 58
Description This gene encodes a member of the nucleoporin family that shares 87% sequence identity with rat nucleoporin p58. The protein is localized to the nuclear rim and is a component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). All molecules entering or leaving the nucleus either diffuse through or are actively transported by the NPC. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nNUP58 is an essential nucleoporin that contributes to the structural organization of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). It exists as a core component of a subcomplex in which it tightly associates with other nucleoporins, such as p62 and p54, to maintain the conformational integrity of the NPC. In this context, the coiled‐coil rod domain of p62 serves as a primary binding interface, suggesting that NUP58 plays a crucial role in stabilizing and correctly assembling the NPC architecture necessary for efficient nucleocytoplasmic transport."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nFurthermore, genetic studies employing hypomorphic alleles of the NUP58 gene have underscored its dosage-sensitive role in cellular adaptation to stress. Early adaptation to reduced NUP58 function involves transcriptome rewiring and upregulation of genes that interact with the NPC, while long-term recovery of cellular fitness is achieved through focal amplification of NUP58 and subsequent restoration of its protein expression. These findings highlight how precise modulation of NUP58 expression is pivotal for maintaining NPC integrity under both physiological and stress conditions."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "F Buss, M Stewart "}, {"type": "b", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Macromolecular interactions in the nucleoporin p62 complex of rat nuclear pores: binding of nucleoporin p54 to the rod domain of p62."}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " "}, {"type": "i", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "J Cell Biol (1995)"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " DOI: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "10.1083/jcb.128.3.251"}], "href": "https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.128.3.251"}, {"type": "t", "text": " PMID: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "7531196"}], "href": "https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7531196"}]}, {"type": "r", "ref": 2, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Altea Targa, Katherine E Larrimore, Cheng Kit Wong, et al.
