Nuclear envelope-vacuole contacts mitigate nuclear pore complex assembly stress.

ABSTRACT: The intricacy of nuclear pore complex (NPC) biogenesis imposes risks of failure that can cause defects in nuclear transport and nuclear envelope (NE) morphology; however, cellular mechanisms used to alleviate NPC assembly stress are not well defined. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we demonstrate that NVJ1- and MDM1-enriched NE-vacuole contacts increase when NPC assembly is compromised in several nup mutants, including nup116ΔGLFG cells. These interorganelle nucleus-vacuole junctions (NVJs) cooperate with lipid droplets to maintain viability and enhance NPC formation in assembly mutants. Additionally, NVJs function with ATG1 to remodel the NE and promote vacuole-dependent degradation of specific nucleoporins in nup116ΔGLFG cells. Importantly, NVJs significantly improve the physiology of NPC assembly mutants, despite having only negligible effects when NPC biogenesis is unperturbed. These results therefore define how NE-vacuole interorganelle contacts coordinate responses to mitigate deleterious cellular effects caused by disrupted NPC assembly.

Nup53 is required for nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complex assembly.

Project description:Transport across the nuclear envelope (NE) is mediated by nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). These structures are composed of various subcomplexes of proteins that are each present in multiple copies and together establish the eightfold symmetry of the NPC. One evolutionarily conserved subcomplex of the NPC contains the nucleoporins Nup53 and Nup155. Using truncation analysis, we have defined regions of Nup53 that bind to neighboring nucleoporins as well as those domains that target Nup53 to the NPC in vivo. Using this information, we investigated the role of Nup53 in NE and NPC assembly using Xenopus egg extracts. We show that both events require Nup53. Importantly, the analysis of Nup53 fragments revealed that the assembly activity of Nup53 depleted extracts could be reconstituted using a region of Nup53 that binds specifically to its interacting partner Nup155. On the basis of these results, we propose that the formation of a Nup53-Nup155 complex plays a critical role in the processes of NPC and NE assembly.

Nuclear pore assembly proceeds by an inside-out extrusion of the nuclear envelope.

Project description:The nuclear pore complex (NPC) mediates nucleocytoplasmic transport through the nuclear envelope. How the NPC assembles into this double membrane boundary has remained enigmatic. Here, we captured temporally staged assembly intermediates by correlating live cell imaging with high-resolution electron tomography and super-resolution microscopy. Intermediates were dome-shaped evaginations of the inner nuclear membrane (INM), that grew in diameter and depth until they fused with the flat outer nuclear membrane. Live and super-resolved fluorescence microscopy revealed the molecular maturation of the intermediates, which initially contained the nuclear and cytoplasmic ring component Nup107, and only later the cytoplasmic filament component Nup358. EM particle averaging showed that the evagination base was surrounded by an 8-fold rotationally symmetric ring structure from the beginning and that a growing mushroom-shaped density was continuously associated with the deforming membrane. Quantitative structural analysis revealed that interphase NPC assembly proceeds by an asymmetric inside-out extrusion of the INM.

Formation of the postmitotic nuclear envelope from extended ER cisternae precedes nuclear pore assembly.

Project description:During mitosis, the nuclear envelope merges with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and nuclear pore complexes are disassembled. In a current model for reassembly after mitosis, the nuclear envelope forms by a reshaping of ER tubules. For the assembly of pores, two major models have been proposed. In the insertion model, nuclear pore complexes are embedded in the nuclear envelope after their formation. In the prepore model, nucleoporins assemble on the chromatin as an intermediate nuclear pore complex before nuclear envelope formation. Using live-cell imaging and electron microscope tomography, we find that the mitotic assembly of the nuclear envelope primarily originates from ER cisternae. Moreover, the nuclear pore complexes assemble only on the already formed nuclear envelope. Indeed, all the chromatin-associated Nup107-160 complexes are in single units instead of assembled prepores. We therefore propose that the postmitotic nuclear envelope assembles directly from ER cisternae followed by membrane-dependent insertion of nuclear pore complexes.

Nup155 regulates nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complex formation in nematodes and vertebrates.

Project description:Nuclear envelope (NE) formation during cell division in multicellular organisms is a central yet poorly understood biological process. We report that the conserved nucleoporin Nup155 has an essential function in NE formation in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos and in Xenopus laevis egg extracts. In vivo depletion of Nup155 led to failure of nuclear lamina formation and defects in chromosome segregation at anaphase. Nup155 depletion inhibited accumulation of nucleoporins at the nuclear periphery, including those recruited to chromatin early in NE formation. Electron microscopy analysis revealed that Nup155 is also required for the formation of a continuous nuclear membrane in vivo and in vitro. Time-course experiments indicated that Nup155 is recruited to chromatin at the time of NE sealing, suggesting that nuclear pore complex assembly has to progress to a relatively late stage before NE membrane assembly occurs.

A nuclear envelope protein linking nuclear pore basket assembly, SUMO protease regulation, and mRNA surveillance.

Project description:The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is both the major conduit for nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and a platform for organizing macromolecules at the nuclear envelope. We report that yeast Esc1, a non-NPC nuclear envelope protein, is required both for proper assembly of the nuclear basket, a structure extending into the nucleus from the NPC, and for normal NPC localization of the Ulp1 SUMO protease. In esc1Delta cells, Ulp1 and nuclear basket components Nup60 and Mlp1 no longer distribute broadly around the nuclear periphery, but co-localize in a small number of dense-staining perinuclear foci. Loss of Esc1 (or Nup60) alters SUMO conjugate accumulation and enhances ulp1 mutant defects. Similar to previous findings with Mlp1, both Esc1 and Ulp1 help retain unspliced pre-mRNAs in the nucleus. Therefore, these proteins are essential for proper nuclear basket function, which includes mRNA surveillance and regulation of SUMO protein dynamics. The results raise the possibility that NPC-localized protein desumoylation may be a key regulatory event preventing inappropriate pre-mRNA export.

Membrane protein landscape of plant nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complex

Project description:We used biochemical fractionation coupled with the subtractive proteomics to profile PNET proteins. Both the crude NE and the total MM fraction were subject to label-free quantitative mass spectrometry (LFQMS). We also adapted proximity labeling-coupled LFQMS (PL-LFQMS) method to map the PNET proteome. Overall, We identified over 200 potential candidates for plant nuclear envelope transmembrane (PNET) proteins and confirmed 14 PNETs.

Lumenal interactions in nuclear pore complex assembly and stability.

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) provide a gateway for the selective transport of macromolecules across the nuclear envelope (NE). Although we have a solid understanding of NPC composition and structure, we do not have a clear grasp of the mechanism of NPC assembly. Here, we demonstrate specific defects in nucleoporin distribution in strains lacking Heh1p and Heh2p-two conserved members of the LEM (Lap2, emerin, MAN1) family of integral inner nuclear membrane proteins. These effects on nucleoporin localization are likely of functional importance as we have defined specific genetic interaction networks between HEH1 and HEH2, and genes encoding nucleoporins in the membrane, inner, and outer ring complexes of the NPC. Interestingly, expression of a domain of Heh1p that resides in the NE lumen is sufficient to suppress both the nucleoporin mislocalization and growth defects in heh1Δpom34Δ strains. We further demonstrate a specific physical interaction between the Heh1p lumenal domain and the massive cadherin-like lumenal domain of the membrane nucleoporin Pom152p. These findings support a role for Heh1p in the assembly or stability of the NPC, potentially through the formation of a lumenal bridge with Pom152p.

Systematic Protein-Protein Interaction Analysis Reveals Intersubcomplex Contacts in the Nuclear Pore Complex.

Project description:The nuclear pore complex (NPC) enables transport across the nuclear envelope. It is one of the largest multiprotein assemblies in the cell, built from about 30 proteins called nucleoporins (Nups), organized into distinct subcomplexes. Structure determination of the NPC is a major research goal. The assembled ?40-112 MDa NPC can be visualized by cryoelectron tomography (cryo-ET), while Nup subcomplexes are studied crystallographically. Docking the crystal structures into the cryo-ET maps is difficult because of limited resolution. Further, intersubcomplex contacts are not well characterized. Here, we systematically investigated direct interactions between Nups. In a comprehensive, structure-based, yeast two-hybrid interaction matrix screen, we mapped protein-protein interactions in yeast and human. Benchmarking against crystallographic and coaffinity purification data from the literature demonstrated the high coverage and accuracy of the data set. Novel intersubcomplex interactions were validated biophysically in microscale thermophoresis experiments and in intact cells through protein fragment complementation. These intersubcomplex interaction data provide direct experimental evidence toward possible structural arrangements of architectural elements within the assembled NPC, or they may point to assembly intermediates. Our data favors an assembly model in which major architectural elements of the NPC, notably the Y-complex, exist in different structural contexts within the scaffold.

Nucleosome assembly is required for nuclear pore complex assembly in mouse zygotes.

Project description:Packaging of DNA into nucleosomes not only helps to store genetic information but also creates diverse means for regulating DNA-templated processes. Attempts to reveal additional functions of the nucleosome have been unsuccessful, owing to cell lethality caused by nucleosome deletion. Taking advantage of the mammalian fertilization process, in which sperm DNA assembles into nucleosomes de novo, we generated nucleosome-depleted (ND) paternal pronuclei by depleting maternal histone H3.3 or its chaperone HIRA in mouse zygotes. We found that the ND pronucleus forms a nuclear envelope devoid of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). Loss of NPCs is accompanied by defective localization of ELYS, a nucleoporin essential for NPC assembly, to the nuclear rim. Interestingly, tethering ELYS to the nuclear rim of the ND nucleus rescues NPC assembly. Our study thus demonstrates that nucleosome assembly is a prerequisite for NPC assembly during paternal pronuclear formation.

Chm7 and Heh1 collaborate to link nuclear pore complex quality control with nuclear envelope sealing.

Project description:The integrity of the nuclear envelope barrier relies on membrane remodeling by the ESCRTs, which seal nuclear envelope holes and contribute to the quality control of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs); whether these processes are mechanistically related remains poorly defined. Here, we show that the ESCRT-II/III chimera, Chm7, is recruited to a nuclear envelope subdomain that expands upon inhibition of NPC assembly and is required for the formation of the storage of improperly assembled NPCs (SINC) compartment. Recruitment to sites of NPC assembly is mediated by its ESCRT-II domain and the LAP2-emerin-MAN1 (LEM) family of integral inner nuclear membrane proteins, Heh1 and Heh2. We establish direct binding between Heh2 and the "open" forms of both Chm7 and the ESCRT-III, Snf7, and between Chm7 and Snf7. Interestingly, Chm7 is required for the viability of yeast strains where double membrane seals have been observed over defective NPCs; deletion of CHM7 in these strains leads to a loss of nuclear compartmentalization suggesting that the sealing of defective NPCs and nuclear envelope ruptures could proceed through similar mechanisms.
