Nuclear-cytoplasmatic shuttling of proteins in control of cellular oxygen sensing

Abstract: In order to pass through the nuclear pore complex, proteins larger than ∼40 kDa require specific nuclear transport receptors. Defects in nuclear-cytoplasmatic transport affect fundamental processes such as development, inflammation and oxygen sensing. The transcriptional response to O2 deficiency is controlled by hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). These are heterodimeric transcription factors of each ∼100-120 kDa proteins, consisting of one out of three different O2-labile α subunits (primarily HIF-1α) and a mo… Show more

“…Accordingly, PHD2-mediated hydroxylation of HIF-1α predominantly occurs in the cell nucleus depending on very dynamic subcellular trafficking (Pientka et al, 2012). These data indicate that nuclear translocation of HIF-1α is a very important regulatory step in the cellular response towards reduced oxygen availability (Depping et al, 2015).…”

“…In contrast to small molecules that enter the nucleus without further regulation procedures, these types of large proteins, and even MKL1 on its own, require association with transport factors like importins. Importins bind nuclear localization signals (NLS) located on the protein, for example as on MKL1, this way allowing the Importin--NLS--MKL1 complex to interact with the nuclear pore and successfully pass through its channel (Depping R., Jelkmann W. et al, 2015). Based on the stated arguments of size and pore restrictions, a collective MKL1--full--length--FLNA entrance into the nucleus is highly doubtful, however a translocation of FLNA fragments together with the transcription factor androgen receptor has been demonstrated (Loy C., Sim K. et al, 2003).…”
