Nucleoproteins are proteins conjugated with nucleic acids (either DNA or RNA). [1] Typical nucleoproteins include ribosomes, nucleosomes and viral nucleocapsid proteins.
ACE1 is a 28-helix domain found in many scaffolding nucleoproteins as well as SEC31, a component of COPII. ACE2, shown in the infobox, is found in yeast Nup157/Nup170 (human Nup155) and Nup133. In either case, the shared domains, like their names suggest, indicate a shared ancestry both within nucleoproteins and between nucleoproteins and cotamers.
Diagram of nuclear uptake of proteins. A nuclear protein is a protein found in the cell nucleus. [1] Proteins are transported inside the nucleus with the help of the nuclear pore complex, which acts a barrier between cytoplasm and nuclear membrane.
Dinoflagellate/viral nucleoproteins (DVNPs) are a family of positively-charged, DNA-binding nucleoproteins found exclusively in dinoflagellates and Nucleocytoviricota. It serves to compact DNA in these organisms. [1] The proteins are known to pack DNA more tightly than histones do.
Histone heterooctamer (H3,H4,H2A,H2B) + DNA fragment, Frog. Five major families of histone proteins exist: H1/H5, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. [2] [4] [5] [6] Histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 are known as the core or nucleosomal histones, while histones H1/H5 are known as the linker histones.
Influenza virus nucleoprotein (NP) is a structural protein which encapsidates the negative strand viral RNA.NP is one of the main determinants of species specificity. The question of how far the NP gene can cross the species barrier by reassortment and become adapted by mutation to the new host has been discussed.
While most histone H1 in the nucleus is bound to chromatin, H1 molecules shuttle between chromatin regions at a fairly high rate. [23] [24]It is difficult to understand how such a dynamic protein could be a structural component of chromatin, but it has been suggested that the steady-state equilibrium within the nucleus still strongly favors association between H1 and chromatin, meaning that ...
snRNPs (pronounced "snurps"), or small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, are RNA-protein complexes that combine with unmodified pre-mRNA and various other proteins to form a spliceosome, a large RNA-protein molecular complex upon which splicing of pre-mRNA occurs.
