FEBS Lett
. 2023 Oct;
597(20):2501-2518.
PMID: 37789516
One of the remarkable features of eukaryotes is the nucleus, delimited by the nuclear envelope (NE), a complex structure and home to the nuclear lamina and nuclear pore complex (NPC)....

Biochem Soc Trans
. 2021 Jul;
49(4):1601-1619.
PMID: 34282823
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is responsible for transport between the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm and one of the more intricate structures of eukaryotic cells. Typically composed of over 300 polypeptides,...

Padilla-Mejia N, Koreny L, Holden J, Vancova M, Lukes J, Zoltner M, et al.
J Cell Sci
. 2021 Jun;
134(12).
PMID: 34151975
The nuclear lamina supports many functions, including maintaining nuclear structure and gene expression control, and correct spatio-temporal assembly is vital to meet these activities. Recently, multiple lamina systems have been...

Padilla-Mejia N, Makarov A, Barlow L, Butterfield E, Field M
Nucleus
. 2021 Jan;
12(1):21-41.
PMID: 33435791
Eukaryotic cells arose ~1.5 billion years ago, with the endomembrane system a central feature, facilitating evolution of intracellular compartments. Endomembranes include the nuclear envelope (NE) dividing the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm....

Moreno-Campos R, Florencio-Martinez L, Nepomuceno-Mejia T, Rojas-Sanchez S, Velez-Ramirez D, Padilla-Mejia N, et al.
Parasitology
. 2016 Oct;
143(14):1917-1929.
PMID: 27707420
Eukaryotic 5S rRNA, synthesized by RNA polymerase III (Pol III), is an essential component of the large ribosomal subunit. Most organisms contain hundreds of 5S rRNA genes organized into tandem...

Protist
. 2016 Mar;
167(2):121-35.
PMID: 26963795
Little is known about nucleosome structure and epigenetic regulation of transcription of rRNA genes in early-branched eukaryotes. Here we analyze the chromatin architecture and distribution of some histone modifications in...

Eukaryot Cell
. 2014 Dec;
14(3):216-27.
PMID: 25548151
Eukaryotic tRNAs, transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol III), contain boxes A and B as internal promoter elements. One exception is the selenocysteine (Sec) tRNA (tRNA-Sec), whose transcription is directed...

PMID: 19450263
Background: The protozoan pathogens Leishmania major, Trypanosoma brucei and Trypanosoma cruzi (the Tritryps) are parasites that produce devastating human diseases. These organisms show very unusual mechanisms of gene expression, such...
